Captured something

Posted on Mon, 04 May 2015

Captured something irretrievable, here. Difficult to pin down a specific time in life and a moment in words with any ease, Tina, plus that gut-aching regret when you can't go back. It's expressed distinctly here.

The buggy photo , the grown

Posted on Sun, 03 May 2015

The buggy photo , the grown up boy crying with his balding head, the word economy that leaves you to imagine. Made me tearful. A poignant piece.

This reminded me of a book I

Very strong piece. Serenity

Posted on Mon, 27 Apr 2015

Very strong piece. Serenity of the tree seems chosen for its calm and then you contrast it with that abrupt, unnatural paring down. My mum's motto, amongst many others, is 'Not all willows will weep.'

This is gorgeous. So personal

Posted on Wed, 22 Apr 2015

This is gorgeous. So personal and yet so accessible because of the rustic farm imagery, a man that reflects the cycles of the seasons. This man's a dream.

Put me in mind of Angela

Posted on Sat, 18 Apr 2015

Put me in mind of Angela Carter's character 'Fevvers.' The make up medium is really effective for transporting your reader through cancer treatment in an accessible, theatrical way.

You could make an exhibition

Posted on Thu, 09 Apr 2015

You could make an exhibition of these, Philip. Your Iceland set is outstanding. Have you considered submitting to Mslexia Pamphlet Comp this year? If you collate them, polish them up, you'd make the summer submission date. Just a thought.
