Busy Day

 












A busy day today as we are first up at Manchester’s All FM here from 3 pm today (UK time) (which can be streamed here – https://allfm.org/). Looking forward to chatting with Ruth O’Reilly today about this where among other things we will be talking about Amanda and my’s new band ‘Mandy in a Bottle’ which our debut EP can be streamed here – more about this evening afterwards (https://oceaninabottle.bandcamp.com/album/mandy-in-a-bottle-drowning-in-the-ocean)


Secondly, a few thank you’s as I’ve had three acceptances come in over the past week or so and had to hold fire from thanking everybody owning to family stuff (which I won’t go into here).


1) Thanks to Polly Stretton and Rhianna Levi for accepting my poem “Beauty of Words” for their forthcoming anthology “Life's Wonders”. Believe the book is open in the Spring.


2) Sarah Pritchard and Joel @ Hidden Voices Publishing who have accepted one of my Dyspraxia Poems “Falling asleep in your car on a rainy afternoon” for publication in the anthology hidden voice anthology 3. This has a release date due in May I believe and launch etc.


3) Mel Wardle Woodend and all involved at Dream Well Writing Ltd for their forthcoming anthology Environmental Engagement which is due out by the end of Summer.


Lesson learned is to send out more poetry for anthologies than what I have done in the past.
