Lunch with Books at the HPL. On April 13, 2015. What a pleasure it is in the middle not just of National Poetry Month but of National Library Week to join the Hattiesburg Public Library’s “Lunch with Books” program. Tomorrow, Tuesday the 14th, I’ll be reading from. At 12 noon, with a discussion — and dessert — to follow. With much of the material for the book coming from the Library’s own collections, it’s an especial joy to join them for the afternoon. Larr; Stained Glass at Pelican Bomb.

Imagination is more important than knowledge." Albert Einstein. Friday, December 02, 2005. It's now six months since my third novel, Ghost Portrait. Was published. The paperback edition will - with any luck - be in the shops in January. Sceptre has decided against the 'period' look, so the cover has a model, pouting prettily, to lure the browsing shopper. Whether this will improve on the hardback's fortunes remains to be seen. The Guardian. Was the only newspaper to print a review in May. Crace, if you'l...

Imagination is more important than knowledge." Albert Einstein. Friday, September 22, 2006. Clutching at straws this may be; still, we should celebrate small victories. Then last week I sent him an e-mail urging him to add his name to the Parliamentary Early Day Motion in favour of urgent action to fight global warming (see EDM text below). I made it personal, pointing out the scale of the problem and his good fortune in being able, as an elected MP, to do something about it. Wednesday, September 20, 2006.
