I’ve neglected to whisper sweet nothings! I’ve been so distracted by my kung fu preteens, I completely forgot to tell you that Pink Zombie Rose oozes with LOVE and it has a gorgeous red cover! (I can even wrap it in roses and send it out signed.) Spoil your best Valentine - yourself! 💌

#haiku / #senryu by long-time contributor, Deborah A. Bennett @d.a._bennett | Deborah draws her inspiration from the teaching of ancient religious philosophers & haiku poets who were also riveted by the purity & beauty of nature. #poetry #poetrylovers #winter

On Saturday, we held our ceramics Symposium and were delighted to be joined by Felicity Aylieff, Nicholas Lees, Patricia Volk, Jonathan Keep & Mimi Joung. Thank you to the fantastic artists who gave such insightful & inspiring talks. It was an incredible privilege to hear you speak about your work.

“Pink Zombie Rose vol 1 is one of the most beautiful and surprising things I've ever read. It's like being inside of a series of other people's dreams, but they are all somehow connected, and some of them are undead. Not in the way you expect, though.” 🫀🧠🪭💌

Hi Alan - You would rather. Mine come from 13 years (along with my wife and daughters) of NW Clog Morris - all retired 30 years ago, but my knees are still knackered 😆 and this is why.
