 Charles Christian (hey, that's me) is to be the Blogger-in-Residence during the upcoming Aldeburgh Poetry Festival (6-to-8 November). Join me as I journey through the irresistible small seaside town of Aldeburgh. What will I make of Philip Levine’s first UK appearance for 30 years? Will I be called upon to provide harmonic backing vocals to John Hegley’s droll reflections on life? How will I react to a visionary encounter with Geoffrey Hill, widely considered the most important English poet today? Will I spot (or be) the biggest cheat at the late night Poetry Quiz? And more importantly will I make it to the front of the legendary Aldeburgh Fish & Chip shop queue? You can follow me on my Ink Sweat & Tears blog at www.ink-sweat-and-tears.com + on The Poetry Trust's FaceBook Group + on Twitter @thepoetrytrust Saturday, September 5
Rave reviews for latest work

OK, so this falls into the blowing my own trumpet category but I've been blown away by the comments my sci-fi/fantasy short stories have been receiving from editors – and I quote...
"It's a brilliant piece, the likes of which you just don't see these days. I love your stuff. It throws me way back to New Worlds but of course an updated version... What have I just said? :-) Charles, your writing is a revelation and should be more exposed. Thank you for cominig to us. Mocha seriously blew me away. I never suspected anyone would send us anything of that quality. Kastellorizon sustained that where I thought it was a one-off. If you keep it coming – for us or for anyone – it would make me happy. Just keep writing that stuff Charles. You've tapped into tha magick hoodoo." ....Dave Kelso-Mitchell, Editor Paraphilia Magazine

Big
thank you to Paraphila Magazine for publishing by SF short story
Kastellorizon in issue 4 of their glorious zine - it's a tale of the
power of love in the face of adversity - oh yes, and there are some
killer aliens who wipe out half the human race but apart from that it is a romance. You can download it at http://www.paraphiliamagazine.com/magazi
