This autumn seems to bring an abundance of rain. My better half and I were at a friend's bonfire party for Guy Fawkes last Saturday (and me a Papist as well!) and in-between the rain drops falling we managed to send quite a few rockets and screaming banshee fireworks into the dark Bristolian sky. As our friends' house is located on the ridge of a high hill we had a fine view over the whole of the south of the city and were able to take in the many colourful puffs of fireworks exploding in a silent flurry in the distance.
On the writing front I can say that I for one like the new look of the magazine. AHM has come home and in its new location I have more control over the lay-out and content. Which is nice. I am working on a number of articles, some of which will end up in the magazine and some others will be submitted to other publications. Also, work on the print anthology (the collection of poems published in AHM in 2005) is progressing nicely. It will appear in due time on the Lionpress site on Lulu.com.
On a personal note I am eagerly awaiting the arrival in the post of Kate Bush's latest and well-anticipated album Aerial. Kate being my erstwhile muse, I can hardly wait..
