I am delighted to be back with The Red Ceilings Press and to announce my new poetry chapbook with them.

I am most grateful to Mark Cobley for his interest in and support of my writing, especially this chapbook at this time. It is such a pleasure to work with him.

My sincere thanks as well to Alan Baker and John Goodby for their generous and thoughtful observations on and about this collection of found poems.

For further details and to buy (with my personal thanks and to support this unique press), go here.

Delighted to have my TextArt poem ‘Truth Died’ in the forthcoming edition of Maintenant 20, with my thanks to the editors.

Final instalment of my ‘Poets in their Poetry’ sequence at International Times, with thanks to Rupert and Nick.

These are found poems from the poets named writing about poetry. Though this is the last in the sequence, it was meant to be the first posted, but it was my error, not that chronology matters.

I am half-way though writing my singular 2026 poetic journal/diary, trying to not include ‘him’ but the grotesque intrusion is inevitable…

Just published at the wonderful literary site ‘Blood+Honey’, a poetic narrative of mine and with huge thanks to editor David Estringel.

You can read it here.

In my ‘Coming Soon’ post of 18th May, I mentioned having a forthcoming poem in the creative writing journal Antae. The complete journal and this poem – a discursive piece about Samuel Taylor Coleridge – has now arrived. I am posting the poem for anyone wanting an immediate read, but to explore the work from others, you will find it here.

My thanks to the editors and all others who worked so hard to get this journal prepared for publication.
