I’ve made another donation of £200 to the MS Trust charity from sales of Journey Through the Fire. That makes a running total of £1600 donated thanks to my books. Oh wow! Huge thanks everyone 🙂🔥

It's one of those rare poetry collections where I want to read each poem thrice before moving on to the next one. Every word I read enchants me, and the good news is that this gem is available on Amazon! :-)

into new quarters,
I buried the light.'

You are not alone! Don’t panic, have a rest. I’m in a similar place, so I’m trying to read more. The words will return. Xx

This is a great poem, but I hope it’s not how you actually feel. You are doing a great job with your writing and will be one of the most important people in the lives of your pupils. Hope you’re ok x
