There have been 7 male and 14 female editors at the helm of the online
Guardian poetry workshop. From October 2004 to November 2005 it was strictly
alternating between man - woman - man - woman etc, but Lucy Newlyn's arrival
in the hot-seat heralded a straight run of nine women, which only ended with
Tim Lairdet's tenure.
I have posted a seperate thread about a recording I made last year from
poets who read at the first Monster Truck Art gallery reading in July. The
thread is called "Recording from Monster Truck Art Gallery July 2006."
