Creative Writing CV
Sarah's extensive poetry and short story publications and competition successes.
Why read Sarah's blog?
This short piece should help people find their way round the various categories of my blog so they can get the most of the many posts on offer.
Exhausted!
I am exhausted today: not so much from 90 lengths of the pool, more from the poetry collection I've been reading!
My Perfect Lover
His voice will leave millipede tracks up my spine, curl round my breasts, hang in a necklace of long vowels...
Sold on it!
I've been thinking recently about trying to sort through my poems and see what I have in the way of another pamphlet or a collection, so one particular book immediately caught my eye!
The downside to keeping fit!
I have discovered this week that losing weight and exercise are not always good. Over the past few days they have certainly not been good for our bank balance.
Back to the classroom
It was geography and maths for me today - helping out with year two at my son's school.
Rising in Rings
Walking the children through the park I managed to get a snap of the new carving outside our recently re-opened Lido - itself the inspiration for a commemorative style poem.
On fire!
Out 'torching' with the boys last night we manage to capture some pictures down by our nearby canal.
Alive - and surprisingly happy!
Yes, believe it or not, I survived today's early morning jog with my marathon running friend - and even enjoyed it too!
I must be mad - or masochistic!
THERE is no doubt that over-exercise has gone to my head. Why else would I be stupid enough to agree to an early morning jog with one of my best friends?
Salt of the Earth
Recently, I have been writing some poetry based on the town where I live. Some writelinkers may remember drafts of this poem in poetry arena some time back. It was one of the poems I read at Droitwich Spa's inaugural Salt Day in September 2006 and was published in a special booklet to commemorate the occasion.
My blogging big mouth!
Well, it serves me right for opening my mouth! No sooner have I blogged here about only posting twice a week than I've been invited to blog by Legend Press on the company's Legendary Authors Group website.
Twice a week girl
I am, I have decided, a twice a week girl. Twice what? I hear you ask, with eyebrows raised!
Well schooled
I don't know how much my son is learning in is first year at school but I'm certainly learning fast after my first morning as a classroom volunteer.
