Paul

I am a Brummie living in Northampton who loves to write but gets distracted with other things. I enjoy horror/fantasy and anything that provokes original thought.

My literary heroes are Clive Barker, Stephen King, Edgar Allan Poe and HP Lovecraft. Everyone should read George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-four .

I have work published by AlienBuddha Press, Loft Books, BlackBough Poems, DarkWinter Literary Magazine and Paragraph Planet.

Fascinating footnote. Tradition I wasn't aware of. Your poem captures the essence of the occasion so well. Nicely done, sir. Paul

Interesting to note the rows

Posted on Wed, 05 Jan 2022

Interesting to note the rows between the English and Irish girls and how they were resolved. Are you planning to consolidate all of this into a book, Jean? Looking forward to reading more. Paul [Title needs an edit]
