So how do you like the new website then?

It looks as though I’ll be getting round to updating this news page every three months (or so), which will give me a bit more to tell you all about. So here goes …

I’ve completed my first book! It’s a collection of my poems aimed at “the young and the young at heart”, that means no inappropriate language! It’s called THE DAY THE EARTH GREW HAIR (and other stuff) and is priced at £7.99 (plus £1.99 p&p) and is available NOW from my “shop” page. If you want a signed copy then let me know. I’ve started work on the CD of the book – let’s see how long that takes me!

Remember that film I started doing in September?… well it’s finished! It’s called ‘WAITING IN RHYME’ and is based in a doctor’s waiting room. It features LES DENNIS, SALLY LINDSAY, JOHN ALDERTON, SUSAN JAMESON, GEOFFREY HUGHES, DON MACLEAN, DANI HARMER, FINTY WILLIAMS and CHARLIE GREEN… and I’m the main writer – woo hoo! You can order your copy NOW from www.poetryfilm.com . All proceeds will be going to MACMILLAN NURSES, so if it’s a toss up between my book or the film, then go for the film – you could always get the book later on in the year!

Don’t forget my ‘my space’ space, for gigs and general shenanigans. Be my friend! Here’s the link … http://www.myspace.com/spoz4 .

If you’re a teacher and want to know what I can do for your school, have a look at the poetry or music workshops pages and drop me an E-Mail for a better chat …which reminds me … a massive “HELLO” to everyone I’ve seen and worked with this year at the various schools I’ve been to – especially the SANDWELL and WORCESTERSHIRE crews. A top night was had at THE PUBLIC in West Bromwich and THE ARTRIX in Bromsgrove – well done everyone!

Keep right on and all that …
