    Excuse this shameless plug...

    There is a new poetry book just out this week entitled 'Where The Hazel Falls' featuring myself and eight other poets.

    It's 9.95 paperback or 3.00 as a PDF download. There is also a 'preview' PDF (2 poems per author) which is free.

    For more info see www.electricpublications.com

    Not trying to rain on your parade here but in the free PDF preview there is a spelling error in your bio...
    Joseph lives near Bunclody, Co. Wexford; he has a chequered
    past, having worked in a wide range of jobs from journalist to cark
    park attendant.

    You may want to check if this is in the full print edition...
    Edit: I've emailed the publisher, hopefully the online preview is an early version of the text and the error didn't make it to print :)

    This has been corrected, thank goodness, and now corrected in the PDF download, thanks a million. The proofs were checked countless times so I believe but still errors creep in!

    No problem, I've written and published plenty of scientific papers and book chapters so I know how it works.

    I now work as a Medical writer and Editor so I know that no matter how many times you proof, word-blindness eventually creeps in. Multiple sets of eyes are the best way to go but even still...errors do creep in.
