I am a Brummie living in Northampton. I love to write but get 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.
I think that everyone should read George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-four .
I have short stories published in a horror anthology by @thealienbuddha and anthology Vol.IV by @LoftPublishing.

A funeral we've all been to. Man I adore that song and scene from "Midnight Cowboy". Maybe Dustin Hoffman's finest moments of many. Always good to catch up with your latest work, Mark. Paul

I love the idea of visiting movie locations to absorb the emotions. I remember going to Belfast to see the Titanic museum. The former shipworks are close by. The atmosphere was tangible.

I've been to Berrow Sands many times. I adore this part of the world. I didn't know about this folklore, though. You should compile a poetry collection based on fairy tales. I'd buy it. Paul :)

"...and spears of snowdrops point..." A salient contrast of winter moving to spring. From the icy depths to the warmth of hope, succinctly captured in your poem. Paul
