PRIVATE EYE
A lovely woman came into the shop asking for “the book about sex with vegetables”…… Her sister is a vegetarian in Cornwall and the book sounded just the ticket for a Christmas gift. This spurred me on to advertise in PRIVATE EYE for their late December copy and early January for late gift ideas.
I performed at Joe Machado’s party and was delighted to chat to the guy from Random House who said he has passed my book on to their Ealing Division. Well some of my fingers are now crossed.
Erotic Poetry For Vegans & Vegetarians continues to make the journey…..
California, New York, Sydney….next??

Julie Peasgood and Aaron Norton just two of the guests on Kingston Hospital Radio….soon!
What a breath of fresh air interviewing people on Kingston Hospital Radio. The last couple of weeks have been jam packed with guests including the zany singer DAVID GOO, PR Guru Catherine Whyte, Martin Seager and his fabulous musical/song writing talent. Really excited to announce that I will be interviewing Julie Peasgood and Aaron Norton on Saturday 18th June at 11am. I love to have a crowded studio and inviting lots of people to hang out with is just so top sausage. Last week brilliant poets Jan Windle and Donall Dempsey performed live and John Hudson sang some fab-funny songs. Valerie Cutko, actress and West End singer sang in our studio too. I just get so excited meeting such talented people and the fact that they give their time to hospital radio blows my MIND. It feels such a celebration. The programme, usually rather insane, quick fire and quirky is called THE MAD HOUSE and runs from 11am to 1pm. We tend to end with a made up improvised song which I lead. Makes me happy. Feedback goes along the lines of ….. guests leave feeling elated and energised after appearing. I think it is because I wave a cucumber in the air! No I don’t but perhaps I will when Julie Peasgood appears as she has a saucy book on SEX we’ll be talking about! Do google Aaron Norton…..a singing voice to rave about, to twitter about to dance upside down and shout about. He is a TRUE BEATLE in the making.

THE GIRL GETS HER DREAM! EROTIC POETRY FOR VEGANS AND VEGETARIANS. THE UNSTOPPABLE LITTLE GROWER.
When I wrote the first few poems for Erotic Poetry For Vegans & Vegetarians I had no idea what was to follow. I sensed there was something sweet about the concept. Within a week I had a publisher. What a grower! In March 2009 I had a show going to Edinburgh. Things didn’t work out with the publisher but within a short space of time someone had offered me 2,000 books for Edinburgh. They were let down by their Indian printer. However, after The Fringe I bumped into a lovely young man who made my books by hand. Little amounts of books began to appear. Christmas, I found myself ill, very ill with a bed at Kingston Hospital. Luckily a little setback and I discovered Kingston Hospital Radio. Before I knew it I had a show. My very first show I had a guest. My very first guest was David Cameron. Talk about a PR dream. Suddenly my little handmade book is on The Politics Show, mentioned on Radio 2, deemed as THE GIFT OF THE WEEK by The Economist Magazine. Loads of mentions in all the National papers. Then one day, in Covent Garden, I meet Miel de Botton. I present her with my elephant poo book. She loves it. Finds it funny. Next thing, I have a poetry patron who funds printing 1,000 books. Rather than giving the investment back to Miel we are going to create an award for a poet to receive exactly the same gift.
My book launch is filled with honey. The book did not remain in my top drawer but has a life.
The unstoppable little grower.
