Special Bonus Podcast from Spoken Label (Poetry Podcast) features the return of our friend, Lee McShane live from his headline spot at his recent online launch of his new book ‘Raised in April’

Lee McShane is a neurodivergent actor, filmmaker, published writer and poet. He is also a photographer and comedian. A fan of horror, surrealism, and the paranormal, he has been published in numerous anthologies by Poetic Edge Publishing, Black Eye Publishing, and the Morecambe Poetry Festival. He has performed at poetry open mics throughout the UK. His debut chapbook, The House Built From Shadows, was self-published on Halloween 2025 which is available on Amazon.

His new chapbook, Raised in April, is the brainchild of Lee McShane and the pure anxiety he faced writing one or two each day. They range from mental health awareness poems and comedy ones to a few haikus, cinquains, and more.

It is a chapbook full of range and different styles, and perfect if you want a quick read or an in-depth narrative.
