Reviews for Pop Up Poetry Anthology Launch
I'd like to pay tribute to Janice Windle and Donall Dempsey, for establishing the Pop Up Poetry spoken word night that is celebrated in this wonderful book. It's an entertaining, eclectic, democratic mixture of names you've heard of and those you haven't, occasionally wild, often whimsical, which reflects the personality of the event at the Bar Des Arts in Guildford, presided over in flamboyant and inclusive fashion by Donall as compere. The book, with pictures of all the contributors on the back cover, is a delight to dip into. Sorry to hear that one or two glitches have emerged post-production, but these should not be allowed to mar the overall excellence of the product. Did I mention that I have a poem in it? It's an honour to be included.

Thank you for your kind words, Greg. Glitches due to inexperience have now been ironed out and the edition available on www.dempseyandwindle.co.uk now is bigger and better than ever - and all formatting has been agreed with key writers.
We want to thank the 54 writers who submitted their poems for publication so enthusiastically. It was a privilege to edit the book and I hope to compile a follow-up next year.
And that includes you, Greg - thanks for your support!
We've set up a facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/popupanthology) to help us to prepare earlier in the year for the 2014 Anthology.
