New Year
A new year is like an empty sheet of paper.It waits for inspiration. Most people try to start the year with resolutions.
Some people succeed, but I usually don't.
The sun over the sea on a morning walk, but those walks have already disappeared, and we are only five days into a new year!
So, I shall make affirmations instead:to increase the readers of my blog, to do more readings from The Moth Box (Parthian) and The Wish Dog (Honno).
To learn to see the world from the perspective of a bird,like the fabulous heron I saw on a frosty January morning.

Dylan 100
The Dylan exhibition at the NLW is interesting, but so many recordings going at once means nothing is heard! (In the PeterBlake/Dylan in Cardiff they had headphones). Also, the poetry pub seems to demean the quality of literature, but I suppose it's a fun way to hear poetry, that is if you can hear it over the other recordings.
Getting there is difficult as there are about 6 sets of traffic lights on the Aberystwyth road-cars go through at 6 at a time, and there are long , long tailbacks. Still the roses outside are wonderful, and you can see the notebooks (on loan from University of Buffalo). Why didn't a Welsh University buy his notebooks when he was an aspiring poet and struggling financially? It seems we still only honour dead poets who can't defend the legacy we give them.

MY FIRST WEEK AS A WRITER
Although my poetry book, The Moth Box (Parthian) was published in October I had little time to promote it fully. Since then it has been featured in Author's Notes in The Western Mail, and I've done a few readings and book signings.
Now my day job has ended I have become a full time writer, and am busy promoting my book in bookshops with the offer of a reading or signing. I've contacted my publisher about an e-book, but they haven't made e-books of poetry - yet.
My book is also available on Amazon. Please leave a review when you've read it.
Of course, I always carry it with me so stop me and buy one.
