You will follow them. </p><p><br /></p><p>On the Writing Course style is everything. In 2009 I went to the Edinburgh Fringe with a group of poets. One day we went to a poetry show.

I found myself surprised. I never knew it would be this simple. One must avoid cliché.</p><p> This is one of my experiences.

Hello. Hi to all you folks who comment on my blog posts. I hope your love spells and potions are bringing you wealth and gigantic genitals. You filthy lot. </p><p>I've been writing something which is currently not shareable - mainly because it is huge and unwieldy in quite a new way. I've been going to one particular room with a large black book and writing with a very tiny nib. Here are some unreadable notebook pages. </p><p>I'm also making prints of some of the ink / typewriter / watercolour pieces I've posted on this blog before. Drop me an email (verityspott(at)gmail.com) if you are interested in getting one. They are fifteen quid a pop which is the low end of what art friends suggested and at the higher end of what I think is just a bit more than okay. Happy to do reductions if that's too pricey, or deals for sets. </p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdjCKOG9yBEnfvsr44RmBCRWBRRTua96Qnn6CPq6ba7lB0xYvYDu8HmtLVO55WGVEZ94-EE7QYwsirp0QZOb1gdMVxG_-WPTw8n2RFYBQXVcbeXiR7InOJzYy9vveZSMYvR0k5itKhyphenhyphenv6G/s1168/8.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;
