BACK ON RADIO NORFOLK

I've been poet-in-residence on the Roy Waller Show on Radio Norfolk since March 07 and I'll be returning for a poetry chinwag on Tuesday 14 October at 3.00pm when I'll be taking teacher turned poet Jane Anderson along with me to chat about 'The Poetry Treatment', a project to get the staff of the Norfolk & Norwich Hospital to write and read poems.

I'm currently running a poetry reading group at Halesworth Library for The Poetry Trust. We'll be meeting fortnightly, next session Wednesday 15 October. For more info and an application form, phone The Poetry Trust, 01986 835950.

JUST OUR LUCK' OUT NOW

Published in March, my second short selection of poems, 'Just Our Luck' is now available. You can buy it from my shop either with PayPal or by cheque.
