I couldn't agree more. I actually met him briefly in the 1960s and had a little banter with him. Hearing that I was Italian, he told me that he was in the first British tank that entered Rome. When I joked that I was there but didn't see him, he...

I have just finished reading

Posted on Tue, 31 Oct 2023

I have just finished reading all six parts of your story and found them absolutely fascinating and funny. The writing is brilliant; one can be deceived by the humour and fail to detect the shrewd and deep observations of human emotions.

You make writing about nature

Posted on Tue, 25 Jan 2022

Posted on Sun, 06 Sep 2020

You have made the writing of nature and the elements - and related symbolism - your speciality, Rachel, and you do it superbly. This poem is no exception.
