How to get into an editor’s good books

Well, buying their work is always a good idea (all prices include p+p)…


Give Me Where To Stand

And if you would like to know the when, why, what, who and how,
the answers may be in my first poetry collection, published by Headland

Available straight from the author’s mouth, as it were: save yourself £1 by ordering direct: £6.50

And there have been quite a few satisfied customers –
‘3 more copies please’ (AB; Cambs)

A poetry book is not just for Christmas so why not treat your nearest and dearest, or those far away, and yourself of course:

‘even if there aren’t
always happy endings,
each beginning is filled with promise.’

[from Full of the Joys of Spring]




And there’s a poetry pamphlet,  BITCHING

Somewhere between Pam Ayres  & Wendy Cope, with a pinch of Victoria Woods : £3.00
‘(Even the title) made Roger McGough laugh out loud’(Croydon Advertiser)

‘Rose-tinted glasses
colour the world delightful,
appropriate shades.’
