Harry Godwin has had 2 children since leaving London. His press, Arthur Shilling, is on a hiatus & he's not produced much work either. Coincidence?

Linus Godwin-Slug was born on 16th September. He keeps chickens, grows beards, rears slugs, lives in Devon, lives in London, travels to Northumberland, home of the Angles. Since being separated from his moustache, his feet haven't left Devon, except for a disastrous foray into Cornwall, where his sideburns were nearly ripped off. His moustache now roams the land, seeking opportunities and upper-lips to read poems.

Giles Goodland was part of two Dusie Kollektivs. One of them, 'from Gloss' later turned into Gloss, from the Knives Forks and Spoons press. His most recent book is The Dumb Messengers from Salt.

Jeff Hilson's recent publications include stretchers (Reality Street, 2006), ed. The Reality Street Book of Sonnets (Reality Street, 2008), Bird bird (Landfill, 2009) and In The Assarts (Veer, 2010) and he is currently working on a sequence called Organ Music. He teaches Creative Writing at Roehampton University, London and runs the reading series Xing the Line.

Sarah Rosenthal is the author of Manhatten (Spuyten Duyvil), The Animal (Dusie), sitings (a+bend), not-chicago (Melodeon), and How I Wrote This Story (Margin to Margin). Her book of interviews, A Community Writing Itself: Conversations with Vanguard Writers of the Bay Area, was published by Dalkey Archive in 2010. She serves on the poetry jury for the California Book Awards, teaches in the University of San Francisco’s MFA program, and writes curricula for Developmental Studies Center in Oakland, California.

Carol Watts lives in London. Her recent dusie chap is Good Life Redact #1. Her books include Occasionals and Sundog, and the chapbook Mother Blake.

Tilla Brading, poet, performer and textual artist, teaches creative writing as well as working most of her life with students with a variety of Learning Difficulties. Brought up in Ystradfellte, Powys she was joint editor of PQR (Poetry Quarterly Review) and assistant Custodian of Coleridge Cottage, where the poet lived, in Nether Stowey, Somerset. Her poetry has appeared widely in a variety of magazines and on-line i.e. Shearsman, Oasis, Fire, Staple, Terrible Work, HOW 2, Great Works etc.. Her most recent publications are :Stone Settings (with Frances Presley). Odyssey Books & Other Press, 2010 & Grid. Dusie Kollektiv, 2012
