Buttercup Festival

I've made some updates around the site, most notably to the poetry page, where I've added information, photos and review quotes for The Simple Men. I've also added buttons to allow you to buy copies of The Scarecrow directly from me, as Knucker Press is taking a breather. And even though it's out of print with the publishers, I still have a few copies of Parsimony in my keeping if anyone is interested in purchasing one. Just send me an email, especially if you'd like to buy a few items, including Standing in the Sea postcard sets, as you'll save money on the shipping.

I've also added some old and new sketches to a new sketchbook page. These were all done sitting outside, actually looking at the thing I'm drawing, which is something I wish I made more time for. There's also something new on the reader stuff page, with thanks to Jesse.

Long time readers may be wondering what the heck I'm doing with Renaming of the Birds. Over the last two years this has been kindly rejected by all the likely (and not a few unlikely) publishers and agents I could find, on both sides of the Atlantic. So I'm going to start looking into self-publishing options, including e-book formats, perhaps combining this with a limited run of fine homemade editions. I probably shouldn't speculate out loud like this because the time is never there, but I'm too fond of the book to just mothball it. We shall see.

And finally, I thought I'd share the good news that my wife and I are expecting our first child, a daughter, in September.
