Blog News

1. Comments are still disabled though I am thinking of enabling them again.

2. There are now several extra pages - Poetry Index, Travel, Education, Childish Things - accessible at the top of the page. They index entires before October 2013.

3. I will, in the next few weeks, be adding new pages with other indexes.

Poetry Index

This index lists all the poems that have appeared up to October, 2013.
They are organised alphabetically within theme. The ones at the start do not fit easily into any particular theme.
