Oversteps poets were well-represented at Ways with Words this year, with five group readings during the Oversteps Day in the Upper Gatehouse. In the morning, under ‘Where we are’, there was a reading by Devon Poets and another one on Poetry of Place, which covered our poets from New Zealand, Spain, Sussex, France and Dartmoor. After lunch we moved on to ‘Who we are’, with readings by Hot off the Press poets and (in Encore) those who have had more than one book published by Oversteps; and several poets explored the theme of Faith and Doubt.
