This, Johns fifth book of poetry, is an indication of what happens when a writer is passionate and dedicated to his craft. A full-time writer in his retirement, John enjoys every moment, but suffers from Writers Block more often than not. I work myself too hard sometimes he says, I work through the night when the Muse is about (!) and read voraciously. I can spend days agonizing over apparently trivial words, but it has to be right John travels regularly to family in South Africa, Germany,...

As the first two books of poems published by Chipminka clearly showed, John has experienced severe mental problems due to a savage sexual assault and rape. This volume shows the therapeutic and cathartic value of the act of writing in overcoming such problems. This is a good example of attention to the daily habit of creativity. John, in this volume, clearly demonstrates how writing has transformed a series of major personal problems into opportunitiesabove all, the opportunity to transfor...

This is a collection of poems created at odd moments, day and night. This is the seventh in a series that began a number of years ago when John was savagely raped in the workplace. The book means so much to John. There is a constant sense of pure delight and fascination with words in this. John here distils his own idiosyncratic sense of the word and the world he finds himself in.

This, the fourth book of poems in the series, is the follow-up to Rosetta. John felt that as this is the aftermath of three books published, Aftermath as a title is self-explanatory. It comes from someone born in Ireland in 1947, exiled since 1967, John is now retired and writing full-time. There is no inherent logic to the placement of individual poems: they were, at the time of writing, responses to everyday situations, written there and then.

Sixth in the series, this book is by no means the last John says. As long as the fascination with words stays with me, I shall continue my dedication to improving my verbal self-worth. The Muse has been kind to me, in spite of my bipolar state (due to being raped in the workplace some years ago). Writing has been so very therapeutic since that awful day. Such is my dedication that I work through the night most nights. I greet the dawn in my small study and long for the day when Writers Blo...
