Poetry Poetry / SONGS GONE WRONG by Rhys Hughes - FREE until July 27th
The ebook edition of Songs Gone Wrong is a free ebook for five days. I put this poetry collection together mostly for my own benefit, so I will be better organised at poetry readings. It is slanted towards poems I am comfortable reading aloud in public.
But I think (or hope) the poems inside are entertaining enough to be read as non-performance poems too. Incidentally, I will be reading from this book this coming Saturday, as part of the UNESCO City of Literature event in Aberystwyth.
This is the third Mission Creep Press book.

amazon.comCiao a tutti!
Ho appena pubblicato il mio primo romanzo, si intitola Miranda: Intrighi al Petit Palais.
Sinossi:
Al Petit Palais ognuno è convinto di aver capito tutto. E naturalmente si sbaglia.
Miranda è riuscita a trasformare un piccolo boutique hotel nel cuore di Parigi in un rifugio di eleganza e perfezione, e ora è a un passo dal realizzare il suo sogno.
Finchè al Petit Palais fa il suo ingresso un affascinante investitore britannico deciso a sfidarla.
Tra ospiti eccentrici, ambiziosi uomini d'affari, corteggiatori improbabili e scadenze che incombono, Miranda dovrà decidere fino a che punto è disposta spingersi per proteggere ciò che ha costruito.
Ispirato liberamente alla Locandiera di Goldoni, una commedia contemporanea corale ambientata nella Parigi di oggi.
