"Twenty From Ten" Dino's Poetry Book
In light of me getting the funds together to press another 100, and also seeing as I'm reading at the Much Wenlock Poetry Festival tomorrow, I feel it might be a good time to tell you all I've written a book of poetry.
Some of you might remember me occasionally posting the odd poem here and there. But "Twenty From Ten" is a collection of 20 poems from er... 2010.
Being on the open floor circuit it's obvious I'll have built up a stock of the best bits from those years... this isn't that book.
Before I got diagnosed with Anxiety/Depression (And I'm feeling 100% better now than I was then) I fell out with a local publisher about putting out a book like that.
So while I recovered, I started again. Poetry year zero. The first 6 poems were influenced by drinking and the book sobers up, but if anything becomes more ranting!
I'm so happy my friend, Tanvir, who I've known for less than a year, has put up the cash for a first print and made it easier for me to buy more copies.
Of course I asked him to arrange a Facebook page!

I'm also setting up a PayPal for copies when I get some more before May.
You can let me know if you're interested and I'll send you a private message nearer the time. For those of you who haven't got Facebook, I've put up a link to a digital recording of my poetry set (28 minutes+) at the book launch.
Thanks for continuing this site, and I'll look into donating cash to keep it running soon. I can't sell you any books at the moment. Stay tuned for updates.
And thanks for listening. Because it was published in 2012 (And I am thinking of making a trilogy) I'm charging £5 (People who aren't students are prepared to hand that amount over!) but for UK I'll give free P&P.
So here's my set:

(The poem's aren't as long as they look. I also ramble in between them... a lot)
