Well done Robert. Enid started with poems as I remember so we shall be expecting about 700 books from you over the next few years.

Re: Any writers trying to get published?!
Hi all: just thought I'd let you know that my poem, 'Everybody's Friend' is out this week in 'The People's Friend'. It has been on the shelves since Wednesday and will be there till next Wednesday - page 42 if anyone cares to take a look!!
It's the 140th anniversary issue of 'The People's Friend' - so it's nice to have a poem included in such a special issue!
I have also had another poem accepted by 'The Friend' - but have no idea of the publication date as yet.

Re: Any writers trying to get published?!
Thanks! wish it was a story rather than a poem, but then I guess it's a start!
