Ebbs and Flows

'Here is work 'witty, entertaining and deeply moving. The collection "Love Shines Beyond Grief" is truly remarkable. For me it is an ideal poetic companion to C. S. Lewis' 'A Grief Observed', meriting the widest possible audience and continuing to be a blessing on many; it deserves its own place on the reading lists of all who are called to a life of pastoral care.' - Rev John Page

'Thanks for coming on the course and sharing your poems - the hospital ones you read on Friday were very moving especially.' - Victoria Field

"My divorce client was deeply touched but ultimately cheered by 'Complement'. She says she's going to read it again and again."

"Your poetry is so humane and vulnerable - one cannot help but connect." - Elizabeth Gates, author and avid reader

'Some female poets who fly the flag for women's issues seemingly make a point of writing to exclude men, not these collections. Although written from a female perspective the inclusive nature of the writing is warm and accessible to men too.' - Gary Longden
