Verity Spott's 'Click Away Close Door Say': http://www.contrabandbooks.co.uk/product/click-away-close-door-say-by-verity-spott/
Several of these poets have multiple works across publishers and forms and I'm struck by how *none* of us are working within an expected poetry publishing trajectory.
I'm focussing on solo-authored print material for now, but will do more threads on performers and anthologies where you can find more of us. There'll be many I don't know or have missed -- please tell me!

Also keen to hear about group anthologies, poems in journals, zines &c and will do a future thread on that.

Again, I am not the cop of what counts as "trans" or "poetry". If you use those words about yourself and your work is available in any kind of print, I want to hear from you.
I *especially* want to hear from trans poets from Ireland, trans poets of colour, & trans poets over 40.
