Unfortunately the business of life has taken over poetry and blogging recently, plus zero inspiration hasn't helped. Hopefully things will settle down soon.
I'm doing a poetry reading a week on Saturday at the Callender poetry weekend along side Chris Powici, Tom Murray, Kona McPhee, Bridget Khursheed and Andrew P Pullan. So very much looking forward to it, the full programme for the weekend can be found here.
This is the lovely cover of the Cinnamon Press anthology due out next month and which I have three poems in, plus I have a poem in one of the weird and wonderful Sidekick Books micro-anthologies(produced by Jon Stone and Kirsten Irving, editors of Fuselit Magazine which is due out next month also.
So hope to get back to blogging better soon! I hope even more that I'll manage to write even one poem, soon!!!!

I don't believe in block...you're just storing...they'll come when they're ready.
And congrats on all the publications.

you say: quiet time on poetry front, but actually so many wonderful news about your poems!!!
congratulations :-)
Congratulations on all these publications and the reading! You are really getting about these days :-) The inspiration will return ... but as for the interferences life throws in its way ....
thanks rachel, I've got so much poem material but I seem to have lost the ability to turn them into actual poems :(
thanks roxana, it's a real encouragement to see them in print but I guess there's always that worry about writing the next poem!
thanks james, I really wish I could get about more :) I've definitely caught the reading bug, I really loved doing my first reading back in June! I know I've been here many times before but there's always that horrible feeling that I'll never be able to write another poem.
Missed this! Congratulations on the publications (love that cover) and I went to a workshop with George Wallace that was just all about playing with words so that you could access the muse! I'll e-mail you the tips if you want, just let me know via the blog or soemthing. It was really good fun, and very light.
that would be great thanks, I'm just not getting enough quality poetry time at the moment!!!!!
A bit late, but I'm back and will do this weekend! Can I find your e-mail easily?
Ooh, obviously I can!
