If you want to use any of this material contact me and there is a very good chance I will say YES.
However, if you just cut and paste into your own blog or whatever and pass it off as your own then there's a very good chance I will find out. Don't fall into the trap of thinking the internet is so vast and expanding so fast (note the fancy internal rhyme)] that no one will know.
O.k you’ve convinced me, If I don’t win it I’ll just have to but it!
O.k you’ve convinced me, If I don’t win it I’ll just have to buy it!
Oooooo, I would LOVE. A copy 🙂

Hi Bridget. It is indeed a fine tome. And members of your extensive fan base are looking forward to your next novel. Any news on that?
Now there’s a crisp and professional looking blog…
Thought you would like to know that Wendy (Cutts) used “Knock on any Door” (another book that Bridget was heavily involved in producing, for blog readers who do not know), during a sociology lecture at Bournemouth University yesterday. So its circulation and impact continue to expand! Any news on a reprint?
You might also like to take a look at the following you Tube link, a short film about a collaboration between the University and a local school for young people with profound disabilities, using poetry as the medium.

Hope you’re fit and funky,

Great to hear from you Ged and thank you for posting this powerful and inspirational video. Lucy’s poem demonstrates why a project like this is so important. It has stayed with me since I heard it last night – it’s uncomfortable, it gets under the skin, it’s exactly what good poetry is all about.
Understand that copies of that excellent local history KNOCK ON ANY DOOR are now in Brighton schools and libraries. Not sure about a reprint – I’ll ask and let you know.
And my own writing….off to do some of that now. Saying it quietly, very quietly but I think/ pray I’m at the editing stage…(again).
