Beautiful Nowhere

My first full collection of poetry, Beautiful Nowhere, is now available from:

Cheryl Moskowitz has written a comprehensive and fascinating review of ‘Beautiful Nowhere’ which is available to read on the Nine Arches blog here: https://ninearchespress.blogspot.com/2022/08/nowhere-somewhere-everywhere-cheryl.html

The Ward

Featured in the Poetry Book Society Bulletin, The Ward was published by Paper Swans Press in 2018. It was chosen as a textbook by Canterbury Christ Church University for the Applied Psychology department, and I used it to help University of Brighton Mental Health Nursing students increase their empathy with prospective patients.

Sorry, this pamphlet is now sold out.

The Happy Bus

The Happy Bus was my first published pamphlet of poetry. I used to perform it in upstairs rooms and back bars of pubs, wearing a wolf onesie. I kind of miss all that. The Happy Bus is still available on Lulu, at : The Happy Bus (lulu.com)

Here’s a daft photo of me reading from it at Roundabout Nights in Chatham:
