28/11/07 day job dreams

early rising
to start my day
take time for some exercise
and write a page
switch on the tv
and watch the breakfast news
take a bath
and go the loo
dress for working
outside of town
cleaning off my working boots
with a mortar trowel
the day has just started
what will it bring
a curse, a blessing
or will my heart sing?

a poem about my workaday life volunteering for the BTCV foundation in the north west, it follows on from the rest of my ruminating on here as part of the blues diary written 2007. and if you click on the title there is a link to the BTCV website where you can volunteer yourselves!

feel free to leave your views, opinions and ideas on my work here so that i may get some feedback.

about chipmunkapublishing.com

i only decided to become an author at 26 and even though i had already written my first autobiographical novel, 'dead city streets.' i could not find a publisher... several rejection letters later, it was suggested i try to find a mental health publisher for my work and so after searching the internet, i found the chipmunka foundation and found a medium that would support my efforts to get my voice heard.

thanks to jason pegler, andrew latchford, paul kirven and the chipmunka team i found there were others' out there who also wanted the world to read what they had to say about mental health issues and their time spent under psychiatric care. and so the story was born, as was my first novel out of love, commitment and determination to have the mental health debate laid bare by those who had suffered tormented visions of abuse, violence and hostility: as well as the real concerns of homelessness, drug addiction and poverty

the chipmunka foundation understood and supported me in my endeavor to become a published author through their publishing house chipmunkapublishing.com and are about to publish my second paperback 'guilt, shame and poverty' later this year. it is available now as an e - book by clicking on the blue picture at the top left of the screen, with the headline of the same name.

so if you liked this blog, support the foundation, mental health services and me, of course and purchase one of my two novels by clicking on the pictures which will lead you to one of two webpages that sell my work, and others' -

chipmunkapublishing.com and amazon.
