She once made the news,
then she wrote the news,
now she writes poems about it.

this is Kates.

She wished Tony Blair was her Dad, found out the Yorkshire Rippper worked for her auntie and watched the Satanic Verses being burned through the window of the 576 bus. Kate's journeys through news saw her looking for a voice, a father and a snappy headline. This is the story of what she found and what she lost.
