Tulips in Amsterdam



I've a short story in this week's The People's Friend magazine.  It's called Tulips in Amsterdam and was inspired by a visit I made to the Dutch tulip festival in Keuekenhof some years ago.

The magazine is in the shops today with my story inside.  Also inside is another weekly instalment of my soap, Riverside!

Poem: Celebrating Doris Day day

Each week I send an entry into The Spectator's Let's Twist writing competition. It's a fun, weekly creative writing challenge which I really enjoy entering - and reading other people's wininng entries.

I've never won it so far and I doubt I ever will, there are some hugely talented, literary writers there.

However, I've had a mention in this week's competition!

The task was to write a poem making the case for a commemorative day for a person or thing of my choice.  And so, here's my entry, which does get a mention, as I put forward the case for a national Doris Day Day. 

Doris Day Day

Hip hip hooray
For Doris Day day
She's the all-American girl next door
Whip-crack-away
For Doris Day day
She’s the one we all adore
So move over, darling
Let’s take the day off
And raise a glass to Doris Day
Or, as we really should say…
… to Doris Mary Ann von Kappelhoff
