Over the past six years I have using NaPoWriMo (National Poetry Writing Month for those who have never heard of it) as a exercise in writing a 30 part poetry sequence called Ghost Story, where I took the main two characters Andy and Michelle in a series of supernatural led adventures against all kinds of creatures and monsters and left them left witnessing the death of their own world.
Whether I will return with Ghost Story VII, all shall be revealed in time (In short, I don’t know yet) but this year the story will be called Fragments of David.
I’ll not reveal much yet as to be honest I don’t know all of the story yet myself, but it will start with a death and then.. I’ll let you find out for yourself.
Keep an eye on this blog and all been well, first thing in the morning a new part will follow. To make life harder for myself , each part shall be 10 lines, nothing more, nothing less, 2 x 5 line stanzas.
My Living Room Sessions (on youtube) is still dropping a new poem every day and all been well and will carry on for a while.
