About One Man’s Trash:
Spreken and Matt Chamberlain were fans of each other’s work. They got talking. They saw parallels. Each thought the other an economical poet; each participated fitfully in the Medway poetry scene; each displayed fluctuating motivation. They both also recognised that fluency in expressing sadness could easily become a form of poetic self-harm. A gear change was needed and the lit-art project, An Assemblance of Judicious Heretics, showed them the way.
They noted that this exhibition and live performance event, which anonymously pairs writers and visual artists, essentially forces collaboration upon the solitary. They appreciated the fresh perspectives created when an artist interprets a mystery writer’s words. They wondered about doing this the other way round, each writing based on an image supplied by the other. And if the images – offered with no explanation – were deliberately boring, random, unspecific or grim, and their interpreter’s only remit was to see something positive in them, this would be poetically exciting.
It was decided. This is how they would emerge from the corners they’d written themselves into. One man’s trash is another man’s treasure. Or hope. Or mirth. It could be all sorts of things, but for the co-authors of this book, it has been a pleasure.

About Poetic Thoughts of a Rebel:

New artwork, new title, new poems, and a preview from the next upcoming project are all waiting inside to be seen by readers. With the current state of America looking more, and more grim by the day it’s up to writers, poets, and other creatives to not only resist against a system that’s fueled by hatred, bigotry, and ignorance but to create change. Come along for the journey as we explore issues that many can relate to, but are sometimes apprehensive to speak on.

About Poetry Untamed:
Untamed Poetry has three sections of dark and light narrative poems. Dark Play is suspense, the unknown and a bit of twisted evil. Light Rise is light, bubbly, fun and at times humorous with maybe a lesson or two. Last but not least, Light Shade which is a bit calmer in nature and is neutral. These events are down to earth with a few still caught within the outreach of time.
Within these pages are stories situated within the arena of the unreal and its many faces. You try to fit the pieces together but somehow they don’t fit. No doubt you’ll be reading twice. Complications, experiences, mishaps and the pleasant all reside in such a place that is beyond this realm.

About 20/20:
A collaborative poetry collection with award-winning poet Mario Susko exploring themes of love and family in a time of civil war and exile. As we all watch the heart- wrenching scenes of distruction in Syria, we share our own experiences of life and love through two very different kinds of war; his that of ex-Yugoslavia and mine in the dying years of old Apartheid South Africa. Dislocation and exile can happen to any of us and we wished to share the beauty and strength of the human spirit that finds its voice, often uniquely during such violent outbursts in our lives. 20/20 is a glimpse into the private lives of two very different histories bound by a shared insight into the love and wisdom of our very human hearts.

About Cut Both Ways – Peaks & Valleys of a Passionate Relationship Expressed Through Poetry:
In a relationship more often than not, both parties are not passionate people. Passionate, not necessarily in a romantic sense, but about life in general; feeling strongly about goals, interests, ideas and yes, dreams and love. Usually one is a taker, one a giver. The old adage “opposites attract”, or do they? This collection of works will delve into the life of a relationship where both individuals are extremely artistic, intense, passionate about life, and fierce about love.
“Cut Both Ways” is a living, breathing body of work that exposes true human nature. From beginning to the end, this is much more than poetry, it’s an entire lifetime of the good, the bad, the sensual, and the destructive. But above all else, this collection is certainly life.

About The World We Live In A Poetry Book On Societal Issues:
This book focuses on fictional characters that chronicle life experiences that they’ve dealt with through poetry. Each person discusses an experience that has changed and impacted them in ways they never thought of. These people only have names, race or ethnicity is not discussed because the goal is to feel, understand and relate to their experiences as human beings. Too many times in today’s society we base things off of social stigmas, race, ethnicity, social class when we are all human beings with daily struggles that no one will ever know. Life is a journey and a gift and we should cherish it with the time that we have. We also should be more open to discussing societal issues, having an open mind and respecting each other’s opinions, thoughts and feelings no matter if they’re good, bad or indifferent because at the end of the day, experiences shape who we are.

About Lowering Awareness:
This is essentially a book of solace with moments of menace. It comes from a writer who attempts to lower awareness of life’s big deals and thus raise up its crumbs and celebrate its gentle breezes. One wonders if Chamberlain bullies himself for the enjoyment of the reconciliation; if so, this produces a gentle poetry which can be worn on the sleeve.

About What is Inspiration:
“What is Inspiration?” is a mini-anthology of poetry drawn from the pages of a writer’s workshop called MWW (My Word Wizard). This wonderful collection of poems will touch you in so many ways. You will journey with the authors as they share their deeply personal experiences on such subjects as love and happiness, tragedy and pain, the silly and the sublime. The workshop began as a lark, with Alan Loren offering a website of poetry covering myriad topics. The idea was to offer the community inspirational words that synched with their particular mood at any given time. As all endeavors, it took on a life of its own. More and more people began to contribute their own works, and MWW became more than just a source of sentient language. It grew into an outlet for writers to shed light on their craft. The quality of the writing ranges from those just testing the waters to fully accomplished poets. It is a true writers’ democracy in that everyone is encouraged to submit. And so began the project of compiling a representative anthology of works in the form of our first book, “What is Inspiration?” We hope you enjoy it as much as we did curing the output.
