Shh, Purely Poetry is a collection of poetic pieces about love, sensuality and relationships with sections entitled: love as fuel, (food and coffee love,) the summer and winter of love, strangers in love, quirky aspects and nature as sensuality. Inspired in part by daily prompt poems written for the 365poetrypromptchallenge, observations of places, people and my travels. Review Quote: 'A beautiful collection of sensual poetry based on love and relationships of all kinds. As many of these pieces come from word prompts, it's interesting to see these different voices/narratives come to life. There are some observers, some voyeurs, some sapphic, some with varying innuendos, some in mourning for lost love and some enthralled in a new beginning. I enjoyed the use of rhyming schemes in poems such as 'Gotta stick together ladies', the alliteration in 'Blooms of Blossoming Bliss' and repetition in 'War Talk'. The imagery throughout is wonderfully conveyed and makes each poem vividly its own tale. A unique and thoughtful collection that easily connects to a reader, and I would thoroughly recommend! (I also enjoyed the 'Blackpool Funny Girls Drag Show' as I attended the afterparty of The Book Party and the conga was brilliant!!!) ' Amy B Garratt, Poet.

With special poems and short reflective moments inspired by family, flowers and nature, love, scrumptious morsels, places I've visited, lived and intend to live in, the friendships and hopes I have for the future. The overarching theme is to live a life well lived... And to do what you love. float along with me create clouds of sweetest joy to do what you love hold fate's hand as we venture near and far on life's journey ★★★★★ 5 stars Oh what a lovely book, filled with poetic gems and beautiful prose! I enjoy reading MJ Mallon's poetic fiction, where she ties poetry with prose, and have read several of her previous books written similarly. Do What You Love is almost autobiographical in a sense that she has taken her memories and written them in poetic form, and the fictional, almost fantastical element is where she meets the three sisters of fate through her journey of reminiscences, and they talk about her different memories. It's not linear, but no conversation ever is, is it? Memories jump from the more recent to the older ones as they come tumbling into your mind. I felt a keen connection to the poems about her daughters, and the autumn trees. Autumn is one of my favourite seasons. A lovely book with a personal touch. Ritu - But I Smile Anyway.

Paperback Price: 6.99
Blurb from that time: This anthology and compilation is for everyone, wherever you live in the world. We are all experiencing the impact of COVID19 and lockdown. As writers, bloggers and creatives we express our thoughts and opinions in writing: in heartfelt poetry, pieces on isolation and the impact of COVID19 and the 'new normal.' There are twenty eight talented contributors, including the creative NHS Mask Making Fundraising Team of Jane Horwood and Melissa Santiago Val. The contributors come from as far afield as Australia, Canada, USA and Zimbabwe, or closer to my current home in England - in Ireland, Scotland and Italy. It is as Willow Willers, a contributor said, 'A piece of living history.' This extraordinary and unexpected time period will be shared with future generations one day. Compiling and editing this anthology has given me a purpose over the period of Lockdown and for that I am grateful. It is an anthology and compilation of diaries, short stories, poetry and flash fiction set during extraordinary times. This Is Lockdown is written from many perspectives, including a writer's perspective highlighting the day-to-day life and struggles experienced during such an uncertain and frightening time. It also gives a glimpse into the blogging, writing world. The book showcases several authors and their thoughts on what it is like to experience 'isolation' as a writer. I discuss the handling of the pandemic and my opinion about what might happen next. In the final part of the book I share my latest short story: a YA romance set post lockdown along with poetry, and flash fiction inspired by the pandemic. Goodreads Quotes: "When people look back on the events of 2020, books like this will assume a great importance. They will remind us of all the little things that we took for granted and were suddenly gone." "MJ Mallon begins this heartening book with a stunning foreword to mark the times that are sure to become part of a testament of our times in history on the 2020 global pandemic Covid19 that has rocked our collective world." “I was fortunate to have an opportunity to read an early copy of this book and was delighted to see the author putting this collection out into the world. A highly recommended read that I imagine readers of the future looking to”' “'It's a privilege to be a small part of this book as one of the 'isolation writers.' It feels like contributing to a little piece of history for the future. Fascinating to read all the thoughts and musings and feel that none of us were ever really alone.” The full list of contributors: Richard Dee, (Sci Fi , Steampunk, Amateur Detective author,) Catherine Fearns, (Amazon Bestselling Author of Police Procedural/Mysteries and Music Journalist,) Lynn Fraser, (Author,) Jackie Carreira, (Writer, musician, designer and aspiring philosopher,) Willow Willers, (Poet and Writer,) Sharon Marchisello, (Murder Mystery, Financial non-fiction author,) Fi Phillips ,(Author, Copy Editor,) Jeannie Wycherley, (Dark stories, Suspense, Horror,) Chantelle Atkins, (Urban Fiction, Teen/YA,) Tracie Barton-Barrett, (Speaker/Author,) Peter Taylor-Gooby, (Crime, Love Stories, Political Fiction,) Ritu Bhathal, (Chick Lit, Romance, Poet,) Alice May , (Author, Artist and Speaker,) Miriam Owen, (Blogger, Doctoral Researcher,) Drew Neary and Ceri Williams (Ghost Horror, Supernatural,) Katherine Mezzacappa, (Historical Fiction/Romance,) Sally Cronin, (Huge supporter of indie community/Blogger/Author) D G Kaye, (Memoirist/NonFiction,) Adele Marie Park, (Fantasy, Horror, Urban fantasy,) Marian Wood, (Blogger, Poet and Writer.)

Wherever you live in this world, this is for you. Expect humour, a dollop of banter and ridiculous rants here and there. Amongst other delights, witness the strange antics of a swan posing by a bin and two statuesque horses appearing like arc deco pieces in a field. Check out the violin player on a tightrope, or the cheeky unmentionables wafting in the lockdown breeze! Bestselling author Lizzie Chantree’s thoughts: 'An intricate mix of observations from the author about how the pandemic has brought change. Some welcome, some not so much. A thought provoking read.' Author and Poet Sarah Northwood: 'Lockdown innit is a wonderful collection of predominantly free verse poetry on all kinds of themes experienced during the author’s third lockdown. I am sure many of the pieces will resonate with readers who have also experienced humanities frustrating behaviours during this pandemic. The discarded masks rolling down the roads and the impact of this on wildlife in the future when landfills are filled, and oceans invariably get full of them is certainly something that has crossed my mind. (Simply cutting off the side strings from the masks before throwing disposable ones away could make a big difference so they don’t get tangled on wildlife!) I’ve also had my fair share of dealing with drivers filled with road rage, presumably from the stress! The varied mood and tone of the pieces is equally matched with the lovely presentation and wonderful splashes of humour. Emotive and descriptive language is employed to engage our senses and of course my favourite piece is probably ‘This Face.’ Making this a highly enjoyable collection and one I have no doubt in recommending!'

The last night of the year is often associated with champagne and music, resolutions, and, for many, finding that perfect person to kiss upon the stroke of midnight. And while the nine stories in this collection certainly don’t lack the music and the dancing, the kissing and the goal setting, the characters in Another Chance to Get It Right: A New Year’s Eve Anthology experience a wide range of emotions as they find themselves closing out one year and looking to the next. As you reflect on your achievements from this past year and decide whether you’ll be making resolutions for the upcoming one, spend some time with these featured stories. Whether they’re welcoming the birth of a child, grieving an unexpected loss, contemplating a career move, or simply looking forward to counting down to midnight with their best friend and the girl they have a massive crush on, these characters all find themselves in similar positions as the clock runs out on the year: a decision looms that will set the tone for the next one—and possibly many more to come. Reviews: “Hope, romance, second chances, and finding self-confidence are just a few of the themes you'll come across in this book. I recommend Another Chance to Get It Right not only for the holidays, although it would make a great gift, but also for all throughout the year.” “Here are nine short stories to take you on a roller coaster ride of emotions regarding New Years Eve! Stories of hope, new beginnings, understanding and more on a night for resolutions and choices.” “What I especially appreciated was the balance between humor and depth. It wasn’t all cracks and giggles; several stories had open or even bittersweet endings that reflect the reality of New Year’s for many. Not everyone rings in the new year with a kiss at midnight; some characters need to spend New Year’s alone and find contentment within themselves, while others take the time to gain a new perspective. Those kinds of stories were my favorite! It felt so human, if that makes sense? The characters and their struggles felt genuine and relatable.”
