 THE RETURN OF THE POET....
 
 
 
:) yey after probably a year of being unable to update or do a thing with this website due to technical & memory difficulties I am back & hopefully will not
lose my way again.
 
I ALSO HAVE A BLOG I HAVE BEEN USING WHILE I COULDN'T GET ON HERE, AND WILL PROBABLY STILL CONTINUE TO USE AS WELL.
SO BE SURE TO GO TO
AS WELL, IF YOU ARE SO INCLINED :)
 
So to UPDATE-
 
** In March, MID TO LATE MARCH you will be able to get yourself a special LIMITED EDITION version of 'PLANS TO CHANGE AND OTHER FABLES' complete with hand drawn 'illustrations' by myself on to their pages. 
Their will only be 25 copies graffitied and will cost the same as a regular copy.
If you want to get yourself an all singing all dancing version just put 'LEE version' in the note on paypal when you pay and you will get one, if you're one of the first 25 people to ask that is...
 
** I am starting to record some of my favourite poems from my first collection and ones from my upcoming one that will be avaliable to buy as a CD later this year hopefully. 
I will be hand burning them myself and doing the sleeve art work, etc.
 
** I am also planning and looking in to doing some individual prints of parts of and whole poems with an illustration/ photograph....(Said in a 'Dead Ringers' stylie) More news on that later...
 
** I am also storyboarding some videos to go along with a few of my poems which I will be recording & putting on youtube.  When they are put up I will put up a link on here for you to see them.
 
** I also have just finished the 2nd draft of my 3rd novel 'Vacancy' I am entering it into a competition so the outcome of that will determin what happens with the book. (I have also done a screenplay adaption of it)
 
** I am about to start the 2nd draft of my 1st novel 'Number 1 Fan' this weekend & the screenplay adaption of that also.
 
** And not forgetting I am of course working on my 2nd collection of poems 'Margaritas And The Madness' also. 
I have it down to just over 100 poems now!!...still plenty of work to do... :)
 
UPDATE COMPLETE :)
 
Over and Out
 
(...that should be the title of someones autobiography who ended their career by coming out!) :)

As of..........right this second, my debut poetry book
'PLANS TO CHANGE AND OTHER FABLES'
is avaliable for purchase on this site :)
due to a few technical gremlins ways to get yourself a copy are not as simple and easy
as I would have liked them to be.
But go to the order page and see the many possible ways to find yourself in possession of the book (through Paypal, cheque, Hull Waterstones, www.Amazon.co.uk and The Gallery Shop currently)
The books are £8 flat, no postage and packaging for the UK or internationally.  Wherever you may be they will find their way to you for less than a tenner! Fantastic! :)
Sorry for the paypal hassel of it all I hope to get it sorted that there will just be a button to click on to add it to a cart and then pay through paypal
but patience is a virtue apparently so at least I'll make you ever so slightly (more) virtue filled :)
Take care and happy shopping :)
Byyyyeeeeeeeeeeeeee :)

Sadly due to Holly being only a one woman show and not a mass finger tapping creature the guestbook has had to say goodbye.  I would have said it in Spanish if I could spell it! due to the sheer number of spam porn comments! but if you did leave a proper nice little message than I thank you (which I probably already have actually done!) I think I read all that were there and not porn related.  I appreciate it :) - the true comments that is not the stupid spam porn ones!
