When Out On The Town Last Night
When out on the town last night
I met a young lady called White.

I felt forlorn

I Know A Young Lady Called Heart
I know a young lady called Heart
Who is obsessed with collecting fine art.
When she showed me her etching
I found it most fetching
And we spent the night talking art …
It Is My Birthday Tomorrow
It is my birthday tomorrow
But I shall celebrate tonight
When there will be delight

A Doctor Who’s Name Is Kirt
A doctor who’s name is Kirt
Said, “this really won’t hurt”
But his huge syringe

Come and be interviewed for my new 2019 Author Interview Series
It’s a new year and time for a new series of author interviews.
One of the features of my blog that I have enjoyed the most is my author interview series.
Over the past few years, I have posted over 200 interviews. We have learned about many authors, both traditionally and independently published. We have learned what makes them tick and what techniques have worked for them in creating and promoting their work.
