New year, new beginnings...

As a subscriber and regular contributor to Indigo Dreams’ popular and enduring magazines I was honoured to be voted Poet of the Year 2023 in Reach and to be offered a guest spotlight in the Spring 2024 edition of The Dawntreader in which four new poems will appear: What the doctor said; Go tell it to the Blubells; Amsterdam and The Green Dragon.

Musical collaboration

 

String virtuoso and composer Richard Durrant asked me to write some wintry lyrics for his candlelit Christmas concerts 2023. I'd already written a poem called 'Stopping by Woods' (adapted from Robert Frost) which he then segued into another poem of mine called 'The Shortest Day' to create a beautiful, haunting song, which is constantly evolving. It was a joy to work with Richard.

Poetry Reading

 

In November 2023, I was delighted to be invited to join some talented poets at Flight Of The  Dragonfly's Spoken Word evening at The Walrus, Brighton. I thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to read a selection of my poems out loud to such a discerning audience.

Here's my live reading of I Was Never in Monterey, which was first published by Indigo Dreams in Reach magazine, October 2023.
