In a break with tradition, I’m not posting up a poem. Rather, I am indulging in some utterly shameless self-promotion. I apologise for that.
I may have a book of my poetry published with the wonderful Unbound. But to make it happen, I’m going to need your help.
Unbound are a crowdsourcing publisher so they only publish things that people want. Whether the people will want my thing is another matter. Anyway, they’ve made a video about Brian and there are a number of “pledge levels” for potential purchases. It’s all here:

Thanks for listening. And I promise that I won’t do this kind of thing again.

I’ll pledge Brian, on the proviso that you DON’T do it again!! 😂
Only joking! I’m really pleased for you! Hope it works out.

Thank you, Angel(a). And no, I shall not be doing this again. 🙂 x
Oh yay! I’ve been waiting for you to release a book. Your poems are awesome! I’m off to sign up 🙂
Thank you so much, Jem. That’s so kind of you! 🙂
I pledged the maximum amount, and I honestly cannot think of a solid reason not to ask for this again! Crowdfunding is perfect way to get your art published.) There money enough going around, investing it in important things is the best you can do with it and we all gain the pleasure of reading your excellent poetry.
Thank you again, Arie-Willem! This is incredibly kind of you. Really looking forward to honoring your pledge with a poem.
