heart cockles feeling rather warm. & fuzzy.

Oh wowzy! Those lovely people at ‘Ink, Sweat & Tears’ have submitted my poem ‘the cumquats of christmas past’ into The Forward Prize for Best Single Poem 2018! Mammy daddy, am beside myself with excitement.  What could all this mean? Well, if I win that prize (!), that’d be awesome. If I don’t, it’ll still be awesome to have had my little poem considered & it’s just so cockle warming to know the people at ‘Ink Sweat & Tears’ loved my little cumquats enough to push them out into the big wide world.  The pic below isn’t actually of cumquats, but it’s the closest thing to cumquats i could find.
