Kate has guest edited the 25th edition of “The Mays”. Since 1992, The Mays has published an annual selection of the best and most exciting new writing and artwork from students at the universities of Cambridge and Oxford. Previous guest editors include Seamus Heaney, Stephen Fry, Ted Hughes, Nick Cave and Philip Pullman. More at their Facebook page here or it can be purchased directly here.
Kate says: “I really enjoyed reading all of these poems. Full of life, fun and expression. I wanted to keep them all but it wasn’t allowed. I sneaked an extra one in.”

Just curious…there is an author called Kate Bush, I wondered if in fact it is her and not ‘our Kate’ who’s guest editor? xx

Nope, it’s her alright – if you check out the 28th April entry on their Facebook page they mention that she is “the singer/songwriter who needs no introduction” accompanied by her piccie 🙂 https://www.facebook.com/TheMaysAnthology/
