Our wonderful and deeply moving new collection of poetry by Gordon Meade - 'In Transit' - is available from today: https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/1176370214/in-transit-gordon-meade?ref=listing_published_alert

The poems of In Transit look at different ways of journeying, whether that might be the poet revisiting cancer, examining his own changing relationship to the non-human world, or elegising some of the people that are now no longer with us. These are journeys involving loss, damage, and redirection

I am absolutely thrilled to announce that I as Enthusiastic Press have won the Santander Fuel Award 2021 for New Businesses, alongside three other enthusiastic entrepreneurs!

All I've ever wanted to do with Enthusiastic Press and Enthuse is to offer exciting new writers and artists the platform they deserve. There have been pratfalls and pitfalls along the way but I have learnt from them all, and with continuing development and refinement, I hope to be able to continue to offer new artists a voice and to provide them with the tools they need to help them along on their journey.

Happy New Year, all!
