Hi, well... it is summer.
Nothing usually happens much in summer.
Well, I guess lots of stuff DOES happen (like Jilly having an operation,
then another because the first one went a bit awry) (but she's better now
and convalescing nicely, thankyou)
(have just been doing some flower-arranging actually -
see, lots of art DOES go on)
But, well...
I've spent this summer at home working. I thought I'd get a lot
done but publishers and fellow writers and poets
are all on holiday and those editors and writers and colleagues
who have been around seem to have been
working at half speed. The weather in England has also been quite good
lately
for a change.
I have written a lot though.
But Autumn is Falling fast and I expect things will pick up.
I like Fluxlist FOR its chatty quality.
I like to have an e-mail connection, e-companionship
and mundane conversation.
And if I'm going to subscribe to such a list then
it's good to talk to Flux-lovers.
Of course, I like to read lively Flux debate now and again, as well,
and I would agree that it is thin on the ground of late.
Meanwhile there are two projects of mine that are
running -
Fluxlist poems and writings (Happy New Ears 2) -
and
House of Flux.
I'll re-post the invitation for the former. (Quite a lot of stuff
has come in - but from only a few people)
See the first Happy New Ears at -

For House of Flux -
simply post your reminiscences of the place.
I'll be collecting them all up, probably in the New Year,
and will hopefully turn them into a book or a website or something.
(See early "Room Enquiries")
So -
For what it's worth
There's my two penn'orth
