April 2024
It's a bit late to do April fool jokes isn't it?
I'm not fooling with this edition anyway, it's turned out
to be a pretty good one.
We have one new poet and a whole bunch of regulars and
returnees, thanks to all of you!
Just one notice: Gary Beck has a translation of Aeschylus'
Agamemnon out in paperback, it was written for the stage and produced off
Broadway. Find it on
Amazon.
Right.. hold onto your hats, here we go!
Paul
Murgatroyd Is back with a devilish tale of, well..
Devilry. Rodney, a bullish student at a prestigious college, is
heading for an unwelcome but possibly profitable meeting..

is still writing stories. This one is a "Walker Family" story and Tom is having
A Problem at Work.
KJ Hannah
Greenberg's story concerns a child growing up, and away from her
parents. Flying the nest you might say? It's called The Egg Drop
Challenge.

gets the Winter Olympic Games. Read Winter Olympics to see
why.
KJ Hannah Greenberg again brings us
a collection of her digital art. This time it's super colourful images of
flowers and suchlike.
Terry Brinkman has a great new
piece of art called Hitch Hiker. It's on his art page where you

Him Ilk - Sonnet CDIX - Sonnet CDVIII - Sonnet CDVI and Sleepy
Whale 280.
KJ Hannah
Greenberg has some poems from her "Pulp Literature" collection

pleased you.

going. The email button is at the bottom of this page.
If enough new stuff comes in we'll be back in May,
otherwise it'll be June.. definitely.. I think.

Winamop was conceived on a
whim, is run on a shoestring, ignored by the many, loved by the few and has
continued unabashed since 2003.
All human life is here,
experienced people, skilled writers and rank amateurs, sometimes they hit the
mark, sometimes they belly-flop (sometimes they mix their metaphors). You pick
up the pieces and make of them what you will. Find out about us
here and about the site here.The contributor's guidelines are
here and the e-mail button is below.
We hope to continue to maintain a showcase
for new writing which will grow as you, dear readers, augment the efforts of
the in-house team. We have over 800 unique pages so far but, quite frankly, we
need more...
Have a good look around and if you feel
that you'd like to contribute in any genre, then don't be shy, send it in! The
copyright remains yours, and you could win a mop (unlikely, as I've run
out).
Jump straight to a category using the
buttons at the top of the page, they work from any page. Remember, it's all
free and is made from 100% natural ingredients!
