b'In GBA 349 we get better acquainted with Louise. She talks about the round about route her life has taken between when we met at university and now, finding her way to poetry, writing and teaching, her relationship with Wigan where she has lived most of her life, her new music projects, coming back to dance after years away, being a self employed person working in the arts and so much more.\\n\\nAlso at the end of today\\u2019s episode, after the conversation is over, I repeat the announcement about how Getting Better Acquainted going on a hiatus after episode 350. And also between now and the Christmas Special.\\n\\nLouise plugs:\\n\\n1st Dec Liverpool Cinema For All event: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/vote-100-born-a-rebel-liverpool-tickets-49280462189\\nLouise on twitter: https://twitter.com/louisethepoet\\nwordWITCH on twitter: https://twitter.com/wordWITCHsynth\\nNymphs and Thugs: https://nymphsandthugs.net/\\nLove is a Battlefield: https://nymphsandthugs.bandcamp.com/album/love-is-a-battlefield\\nBird St: https://nymphsandthugs.bandcamp.com/album/bird-st\\n\\nI plug:\\n\\nMy recent writing about consent and gender: https://medium.com/@goosefat101/what-about-the-women-3237e4155f2c\\n\\nMansplaining Masculinity: The Book https://unbound.com/books/mansplaining-masculinity/\\n\\nWhat About the Men?
