INTRODUCTION

I have just blogged 3 net-books.

One is the boyhood work from when I was 7 that contains things of scientific interest to me, but which was stolen in its handwritten form before I got to type it up fully.

I don’t think it belongs to anyone else because as both my parents have said “John wrote it.”

I have called it The Invention of Wallpaper and Other Miracles.

The second is a book of songs.

They are trying to make me go Anon with it.

I have been a little bit light fingered with reworking melodies sometimes, but it also contains some of my most original writings, like the song ‘Dream With Open Eyes’ by Secret Chord H and the spoken word piece ‘That Black Natural E.’

In short I don’t wish to go Anon with it because I believe a writer has a right to a name otherwise an Exclusion of the Individual Machine can close ranks against you.

The songbook was called Dark Dream Radio & The Infinite Broadcast, and is now called Yeah.

The third is a book of lovepoems mainly, and is called Bunchapoems.

It actually starts with a short story which I wrote in Sixth Form, then comes the poetry.

If ever I were to bring them out as a single book, I’d do them in that order, boyhood, songs, love poems, and call it The Phosphorus Trilogy.
