    Judging from the replies to this, Taylor Swift has the politest fans around.

    Much as I love @taylorswift13, can I just say that, from a personal point of view, she could have timed the release of her new album better. Had to drop everything & dash back from a Christmas shopping trip to review Evermore. Fans love surprise albums. Critics ... not so much.

    I spoke to John Darnielle (@mountain_goats) about God, poetry and making it through this year. He's not just a brilliant songwriter, but also a thoroughly nice chap.

    Some news I don't think I've put on here yet: I'm quitting the Telegraph and starting a small magazine.

    I get sent far more interesting poetry books than I can review. So here's a thread of some of the memorable ones I've finished this year, and a poem that I think gives a flavour of each book. Looking for Christmas present ideas? Poetry. Always poetry. (1/?)

    Gosh. This is the most notifications I've ever had. I've never really listened to Swift (I'm more of a poetry person) but I'm intrigued. I'll buy Evermore and give it a try. And if one of you feels like trying a bit of poetry, I have a small pamphlet:

    Hullo friends. A bit of news: I've finished writing my first book. It's called Before We Go Any Further, it will be published by @Carcanet in June, and it includes a poem about this hat.

    It exists! Out in June (UK), Aug (US). BEFORE WE GO ANY FURTHER: 37 flinching, compromising poems by an inessential new voice. Darkly luminous, like a dim bulb. Achingly tender, like a stubbed toe. (Go, litel boke.) carcanet.co.uk/cgi-bin/indexe…
