I have published three books: ANGELIC POETRY: LITTLE PILLS OF COMFORT, ARTY TARDY the first in a children’s series and a collection of poems, short stories and a play called REALITY, BITS, BYTES AND CHIPS.
Why not visit my website: www.kittyclairmont.com where you can listen to poems, read extracts from my books and even listen to the first chapter of ARTY TARDY there too.
My website has a link to my Facebook page where I post all my latest ideas and inspirations, there is also a link to my twitter account. I have also just added a new page called CHILDREN'S REVIEWS
…and of course you can find a link to my BLOG where I will share some random and at times succinct thoughts with you! ...more

Inspiration is a funny thing - I think when your mind is going down the wrong path your brain just - stops - inspiration can hit from the most unlikeliest places - the park, television or a conversation. All of a sudden it will come to you.
You have to be patient - just like cooking - certain elements need to be harmony. I have spent a week even more waiting for 'it all to fit into place' - then a movie starts playing in my head and I TALK to the computer through typing. I don't care about spelling or grammar I just let it spill out. Often I produce more during that intense period of writing than at any other time when I have tried to 'force' it.

Go with the flow - do anything but think about what you're stuck on - it will come.(less)

I am often moved to tears and certainly have a lump in my throat when someone tells me how much my writing means to them - how it has changed their outlook on life - how they feel that they are no longer 'alone'.
It never changes, I am always humbled to have touched another's soul in that way.

“Remove the computer chips
lodged in your brain
before they convince you
that you’ve gone insane…
Take a bite out of reality
instead of becoming
a reality byte.”
