It's been a year since we started Un-Hushed.

When we started we got funding for a year, which means I now have to write a report on whether it was "successful".

How do you measure the success of a q***r poetry night? I have no idea. No one does.

But it's probably something to do with the people I connected with through these nights, so I'm gonna talk about some of them.

First is Jenny. I met her about a year ago and she mentioned she'd read her poetry once. I've since seen her read at dozens of nights, including at a zine launch in Glasgow where we were published together. She's brilliant and getting better all the time, and I'm so proud of her.

Yesterday she made me download Finch, an app where a cartoon penguin gets gifts when I brush my teeth, and the app confirmed we're friends.

I have no idea how to explain this to a funder.
