Completely echo Drew's comment.  I love hearing writers read their work, it always brings an extra dimension to it.  And no ashtrays heard here, either!

Another great episode, Penny.

Another great episode, Penny.  The trees were my favourite bit too.  Trees are indeed the guardians of our world.

Posted on Thu, 09 May 2019

As well as the wonderful descriptions you get in these poems, they are always so well constructed, so that the way the words are used, as much as the words themselves, help the reader to see what you see.  Another beauty, Rhiannon.

I really enjoyed this, and then reading about the background to it made it even more poignant.  What a wonderful memorial to your relative.

I am Delilah, and this is being typed by the servant of myself and Zsa Zsa.  I have a new game for Omar.  Get your local vet to put either you or Mitsie on special expensive food that only the one of you is supposed to have, and then swap bowls...

Posted on Thu, 18 Jun 2015

Some very striking imagery - the one that stood out for me was the passage comparing Joanie's voice to a shotgun, 'her words repeating until the cartridge emptied, until her words were simple, hollow clicks.'  I wasn't too sure about some of the...
