Yep, looks like the impossible has happened and Stash has actually gotten worse since I last used it.

Brighton Fringe 2018
Hello,
Sorry, it's been a while. How nice to see you! Please, do come in.
Tea? Something stronger? At this hour? Oh, well, go on then.
I expect you're come to learn about my rebirth as a performance poet, haven't you? What? Well, you should.
Since publishing my illustrated poetry book, Drunk With A Pen, in December 2016, I have rather gotten the bug for perfoming poetry to a room full of strangers. I can't seem to stop. In about a week's time I'll be performing my 100th set. And in about 3 weeks time, I'll be travelling down to Brighton for a nine-day run of my solo poetry show.
This is super exciting and super scary. I could be performi
Drunk With A Pen: LIVE!
This is mostly of interest to deviants near me in Brighton, UK, of which I suspect there aren't many. But it's something worth shouting about!
I will be performing recitals of my book, Drunk With A Pen, as part of Hove Grown festival! I have two dates: 24th and 30th March. Hove Grown is a festival geared towards new writers.
This is a seriously scary step. I've been performing poetry for about three months now, hitting up open mics around Brighton and occasionally opening for friendly bands. I have learned so, so much about the poems by doing this, by the way. Highly recommended if you want to develop your art.
But I've never charged anyon
Drunk With A Pen: Available Now!
Drunk With A Pen: my printed collection of 13.5 illustrated poems about drink and drinking, is available now!
You can buy now for £3 plus postage from my Etsy store. You can also see it on Goodreads, if you are so inclined. And being a modern day poet there's also a Facebook page (best place to keep up-to-date with the project, there's loads happening!) and a still-not-quite-finished website.
The book has been produced as locally and ethically as possible, with proceeds beyond my production costs going to a local homeless charity.
In a fit of ridiculous indulgence I held a launch night (pictures available on Facebook, no sign-in neede
Announcing: Drunk With A Pen!
I am so, so proud to announce Drunk With A Pen: 13.5 poems about drink and drinking. This has been a labour of love (and occsionally despair) over the last six months or so.
I am calling it small batch poetry*: a small, printed book of illustrated poetry, sold in bars and cafes. You know, in the real world. Everything is being produced and sold locally to me (that's Sussex UK). I've asked 14 friends to illustrate the poems for me (including super Sleyf (https://www.deviantart.com/sleyf) :heart:), and they've all done a wonderful job. The finished print is just a beautiful thing.
Proceeds from sales go to local charities. My only ambition financially is to recover my pr

I kind of thought that stash got better! I'm not ripping my hair out as much these days when using it
