First loves and anxiety to hangovers and periods, Poppy Dillon's heartfelt yet humorous debut poetry collection documents the awkward experiences of her early 20s. The collection is full of stories about growing up, and how chance encounters and relationships can shape you. From the momentous ones, like falling in and out of love, making and losing friends, to the seemingly insignificant, like that person you sat next to on a megabus for nine hours. Poppy is now 27 and a full-time copywriter and spoken word poet in London.

My fourth book of poems 'Skyhigh down to ground' begins and engages with the political much more directly than my previous poetry collections. Intuitive responses more questioning than providing any actual solutions or answers. The content slowly moves towards the domestic, the social and more personal as the book progresses. The book is dedicated to Cam Ringel, Poet Razz, Jazzman John Clarke and Maggie Swampwino. Four people who had and still have a profound influence on my creative work. Not their actual words/music as such but the way they lived their lives and stayed true to their inner voice.

Dreams, Screams and Washing Machines is a delight. Pauline Deakin has a particular gift for unraveling the poetic from the prosaic; dusting off the treasures and insights which hide in plain sight of the domestic and the commonplace." Mark Coleman Dreams, Screams and Washing Machines is the poetry book for people who don't think poetry is for them. Funny, moving and deeply real, it unravels the dreams (and nightmares) of ordinary life. You may never look at a washing machine in the same way again.

For lovers of the comic and disturbing this selection of short pieces peers at a strange world, echoing with questions, that lies beyond the veil of everyday normality and plays host to a motley company of characters: a psychotic Santa, a good boy with an odd idea of "e;good"e;, a Cinderella with a vicious streak, among others - and, probably, the secret police...

Anne Gaelan is from Morecambe and this is her very first collection of poems. This volume contains twenty-nine of her works which are linked by the theme of journey. The poems address contemporary issues from the current refugee crisis to celebrity in addition to more familiar situations which affect humanity like running the local pub and nostalgia for the past. Her work traverses many shades and is a delightful combination of contemplation, celebration, sharp observation, tragedy, and black comedy. It also highlights the glorious beauty of the natural world in North Lancashire and Cumbria

My second collection of poems develops further the themes of identity and correlations to the past, present and the future. Hopefully the poems should speak for themselves without need of explanation or justification for their existence and open to individual interpretation. The title "The mirrors of Thespis" gives a clue to the underlying themes running like a thin thread throughout the poems. Similar to a theme and variation form in music, the opening idea is reshaped, altered and changed by a process of variable repetition; a distorting mirror where the original reflected image has been mutated into other aspects of itself.

I am very please to announce my first collection, with London Poetry Books George E Harris is a spoken word poet and exhibiting artist.
