Pete Crowther 'I'm a retired university librarian, happily married, and living with my wife in a cottage within sight of the lighthouse at Spurn Point and views of the sea on one side (two fields away) and the Humber estuary on the other. I have only taken up trying to write poetry in the last two years but get a lot of enjoyment out of it. Before that my only connexion with the world of poetry was working for Philip Larkin for some 13 years. As far as I remember I never discussed poetry with him, but in retrospect I wish I had!' |

Charmaine Clark It's been a long hard road. Maybe you don't know me, but if I had my book of poetry published and purchased by yourself, you would understand me a lot more. I have a severe physical disability, which has created a very interesting life. However, this life has been more than a bit challenging, particularly over the last few years, as the nature of my disability is progressive. My poetry writing has been growing since I was fourteen years old, it has gone through different stages of development. But I feel the underlying feelings of nature and mans exploitation of our surrounds and created environments has not changed. I'm 55 years old and I am convinced that I will be around for a lot longer, if I had more people who believed in me and the world would stop being so greedy. I would like a lot of things to happen, not just for me, but for the human race in general, but I think on the whole ‘the give has gone'. |
