Frank Assessment was born in Verity Lane, out the back of the Blue Moon Café. Frank is in his mid-30s, as far as his body temperature is concerned. He loves to read his poems in pairs, hoping that somehow by rubbing them together in this way a poem with better hybrid vigour will emerge. He will be reading from his collections, Asymmetrical Love Stories, Drunken Furniture Assembly, Mugga Lane Garbage Dump Mountain, and Mundane Activities for the Modern Age.
Alex Eagleton is a queer author who resides on Ngunnawal and Ngambri land. They fell in love with literature at a young age and have spent their life reading and writing across various literary formats. When not writing, she can be found reading with a cup of tea, studying with a pot of coffee, or daydreaming about living out her days in a gothic library. Alex self-published her debut collection To Hang the Masks Upon the Wall in January 2023.
Presented with the support of That Poetry Thing.
