Cancellation of Spoken Label Christmas album

** Announcement ** A few of you will have noticed I have been talking about doing a Charity Christmas album Viva Spoken Label on poetry.(Spokenlabel.bandcamp.com) Unfortunately, owning to a family illness I am going to have to pull this project for this year. Hopefully we will be able to attempt this project next year. Sorry to everybody who has set submissions in or are considering sending them in. Releases for Spoken Label will carry on for a steady rate for the rest of the year as they have on the whole being already recorded and will hopefully carry on in the new year.

Run away with me in seven words - a new review

Some kind words of Head of Write Out Loud Stockport's John Keane about my and Amanda Steel's new book 'Run away with me in seven words'

"Continuing in this spirit of experiment, AndyN and Amanda did a clever duet composed of alternating seven word poems entitled ‘Run Away with Me’. Some great lines: ‘Spreading across the earth where everything connected’; ‘Instead, I’ve always been lost at sea’; ‘You know I would if I could’… and all rounded off with a poignant ending"

The book can be bought from http://www.lulu.com/shop/http://www.lulu.com/shop/andy-n-amanda-steel/run-away-with-me-in-seven-words/paperback/product-24290658.html
