Can Writing Heal a Broken World? with Francis Hulbert-Powell
Old Meets New Glastonbury
The dust has settled on Glastonbury for another year at least. I have admit I’ve been to the festival myself. Going to the festival comes at a cost, the travelling there and back, being surrounded by thousand upon thousands of people, the chance of a downpour… So second best I chose to watch it on the BBC. My weekend was absorbed with Glastonbury. There was something that struck me. You had Neil…

Anthology We all Live Under the Same Sky is live, published today
Putting together an anthology takes a lot of effort. There is the task of finding a publisher or going down the self publish route. You have to get together suitable material. There is also the choice of which charity, should get the money, from the book. With We all Live Under the Same Sky, there was also the fact that money was going to help Palestinians. Maybe people’s initial thoughts were…

Revisiting The Slits.
Passing through a railway station, my eyes caught hold of a poster, on closer inspection I discovered that it was a musical about the iconic punk band The Slits. I was intrigued to discover more, as they seemed an unusual group to base a musical on. We booked tickets and expected the show to take place in a theatre we’d been to a few times, not too far from where we live. I never got to see The…

Often mocked and maligned, Greta Thunberg should be recognised and praised
She is well known for her views on climate change, but I have discovered a new facet to Greta Thunberg, In another example of her obvious care for humanity she has joined volunteers sailing to Gaza with relief supplies they say are ‘limited’ but ‘symbolic’ This is not without danger, as a previous attempt was thwarted due to a drone attack. The International nonprofit organisation Freedom…

How to solve unresolvable
Sometimes you look into the future and think some conflicts can never be resolved. There is a massive dark storm cloud hanging over Palestine, at this moment and it’s hard to see any immediate some time soon. Lets face it the present incumbent of the White House has not the kind empathy for the people of Palestine, that is required for long standing peace btween the neighbouring countries, in…

Book cover reveal for an anthology
It is emblematic, a symbolic of the mood and objectives of a book. There are book covers that stick in the mind for ever, for example A Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess. They are vital for children writers, as well many other genres. These days you can probably get AI to design you one, or go on Fiverr, or “do it yourself”. Many publishers like to use their in house designer. I fell out with a…

Have we got to used to seeing terrible images on the news?
The war in Ukraine, has brought about unspeakable horrors, with no evidence it’s going to stop any time soon. As few the news footage coming out of Gaza, you see people weeping following some missile attack, for lost children or family. Then there are those images of crowds people with bowls, desperately trying to get food to feed their children and families. But it might seem to some to be far…

What makes people donate to crowdfunding campaigns
Here I am in the midst of a crowdfunding campaign, raising money to an organisation, that transports injured Palestinians to hospitals for urgent medical treatment. The cause is both vital and humanitarian. Personally I am living in a beautiful place in France, that isn’t tainted by the devastation of war. I did see some militant farmworkers yesterday, with some police in evidence. Those of us…

Putting an anthology together for a charity
This is the second time I have put together an anthology for a charity, it might seem quite easy, but it is full of pitfalls. This time I have gone with #Indiegogo because you are not forced into an all or nothing situation, so it is less stressful. This time I have a publisher Compassiviste publishing, where as the previous time I was forced into going along with self-publishing, having been let…
