Taking Stock




I guess it is time to catalogue some of my writing successes. Seeing your work in print, out there in the big wide world, gives a tingle of a thrill, I suppose. Listing it is a challenge. I'm sure I'll miss some, but here's a start:

My little sonnet Twenty Four Hours of a Canadian Winter won first prize in the numbers poetry competition in Writing Magazine 2017 Writers Online October 2017


Find my poem Sister of No mercy in Leonard Cohen You’re Our Man published to coincide with Mr Cohen’s 75th birthday in 2009  Leonard Cohen You're Our man


I'm also a lucky regular contributor of poetry, short prose, and art
in the Arts and Lit Journal ArtAscent ArtAscent
including:

Lost October 2017
Point of View August 2017
Reading a Poem Before Breakfast June 2017
Garden #1 and Temptation October 2016
Girl in a Green Dress June 2016
Mail-order Bride June 2015
Loved to Death October 2014
The Feel of Dark December 2013
The Sequence Dance October 2013
Mother Earth August 2013
Emergence June 2013

AdHoc Fiction - a sub set of Bath Flash have taken my 150 worders every week for close on two years. Ad Hoc is a weekly online book of micro stories. I've also managed to have a couple of my illustrations accepted. My story Walter's Quest was pronounced a winner. You can read it here Walter's Quest a September winner if you scroll down to September 2017.

Bath Flash Fiction long listed my short story Tonight's the Night (which had to undergo some editing out of song lyrics before publication) - but it's a great anthology and I'm chuffed to be included. The anthology is called To Carry Her Home.

There is much more - which I will add on an ad hoc basis (don't you just love your Latin!) but for now, I'll leave it right there.
