hey martin. saw you at the slam at the wirral. i have to be honest- political poetry is not to my particular taste- however i wanted to say that you have all the makings of a great performance poet- presence and a nice style about you. everyone fluffs their lines now and again- next time eh? i'm considering putting something on for the 25s and under- to help develop our up-and-coming poets. are you interested?

Hi Gus.. Mal is a well known wasp sucker I feel. Though if he was low, he was consistently low. If you dont give yourself any room for improvement then you're snookered I guess. Not sure never been a judge? Win

Thanks for your lovely comments Gus - particularly the one on my bollocks poem - I have a quirky sense of humour and wasn't sure if the subject matter was to many people's taste so quickly overblogged it but was glad to hear someone appreciated it!

Thanks for your comment Andy - I am always dead nervous putting up a new one - no I haven't performed it - it is hot off the press. Not sure if you ever read my Mixer Tap Madness one - it is several blogs ago but it was inspired by your 3x short poems and seemed to get good comments - your name came up a lot! Cheers for reading.

Hi Stephen

You were very helpful with your comments on the 1947 short story- I have re-drafted and was wondering if you could read and feedback on its development? by email or shall I blog again
