So today I entered Bridport,
I found it kinda fun,
Synopsising all my words,
To make a squashy bun.
I didn't really make a cake,
That's just poetic licence...
Proving I'm no fake, you know,
To give, with words, the essence.

Where do you write?
At the kitchen table.
In a café.
On the train.
Late at night when everyone else is asleep.
However it happens, we’d love to read it.

Looking forward to devouring the other winners in the anthology.
