Just read some of the earlier posts and realised that some of those poems I read when appearing with Jackie Kay in Poetry Doubles - that must be about six or seven years ago. The trouble with seeing poems in print, whether it's in anthologies or magazines, is that I always want to change things and once they're in print it's too late. However, I'm now working on a couple of sets of poems to make up two pamphlets (hopefully illustrated by photographs).
I will try to keep adding to this though. I was tempted to start this blog after a workshop with Jules Horne when she was D&G's virtual writer in residence. She wouldn't be impressed by how little I've used it.

One year later ...

I'm not very good at keeping this blog alive! It's over a year since I last posted anything, so maybe it's time I paid more attention to keeping it up to date. July's a bit late to be making new year resolutions, but better late ...
Hopefully it won't be June 2013 before the next one entry.
Poetry has moved over to make room for plays and monologues, but still manage to find some time to write new/amend old work. If I get into the habit, then more will appear on here ...watch this space
