Couple of publications in recent months, firstly the first part of a verse travelogue written over the summer of 2015, ‘Summer Scrapbook’, in Intercapillary Space. Some of the places ‘visited’, in body or mind: Ashover; Mansfield & environs; Laxton; Sherwood; Grasmere & fells; Highlands & Islands (parts 2 & 3 mostly in Colorado!).
Then the first 3/4 of a Shepherd’s Calendar (Spring – Summer – Autumn) in E-Ratio, set in the Knowledge Quarter above Kings X, in which the elemental force of gentrifying change outstrips nature…(the last three stanzas / Winter were published in Blackbox Manifold with some lurid snaps of the Knowledge Quarter in construction throughout 2015).
