’Ghosts of Icarus’ would be the my seventh book published by Chipmukapublishing. It is a collection of poetry, prose-fiction, stage-drama and non-fiction which is by way of an exorcism. These ghosts, whether personal, familial, ideological or the spectres of dead or lost friends can only be purged through the power of the pen which harnesses the imagination that dredges those dark oceans of memory within. By its very nature some of the material is more directly auto-biographical than much of my previous work, but some are purely the product of the unbound mind poured into the inkwell in my mind and typed on this computer. I have a B. A (Hons) Humananities with Creative Writing, a Bachelor of Arts, and a Diploma in Humanities from his Open University and a Certificate in English from Warwick University. I hope to begin a M.A. in English next academic year.
