Debut poetry published

I’m really pleased to say that my first ever published poetry is now available in the latest edition of Sein Und Werden.

Sein Und Werden is an “online literary magazine of experimental prose, poetry and artwork that seeks to merge and modernise the ideas behind Expressionism, Surrealism and Existentialism.”

The current theme is “The Re: Formation” – a selection of contributions that take something already in the public domain and ‘reform’ it.

I chose to reform “The Fly” by William Blake (one of my favourites) and Newspeak from “1984” by George Orwell (one of my favourite authors).

You can read them both here – Little I and EightyFour TwentyFive.

Shout out for libraries

One of the great things about releasing a new novel is that you get asked to talk about it (and the other stuff you’ve been up to).

So, it was really pleasing to get an invite to speak at Roehampton Library on to speak about We Are Not Anonymous, and about applied science fiction.

Wednesday 30 April (5:30pm to 6:45pm): Roehampton Library – meet the author [free event].

Details of this and other places where I’m speaking and reading are are on my events page.
