Not writing but reading

I just want to say hello!
Not doing much writing but gathering a few poetry books together to read.  From the library I've borrowed Vicki Feaver's The Book of Blood which I'm enjoying - love her descriptions - many poems here worth a second or third read.  From Amazon I've ordered Paul Farley's The Dark Film and also Gerard Manley Hopkins - The Major Works.  Having studied some of his poetry before and I want to delve further in.  His use of rhythm is unique, quirky and that appeals to me!  What are you reading now?

I did finish my story last week.  It is now 'sitting'.  An editing job is next on the list but I have no plans to start just yet.  If it still appeals to me when I next read it I shall be happy!
