Even though it came third in the poll with cover no. 1 winning, I cast my (many) casting votes and out popped this one…
Hope even those who went elsewhere approve. For me it was the lighter background with the overlaid title reference that did it. For some that made it too busy. Hey ho…
My name is Geoff Le Pard. Once I was a lawyer; now I am a writer. I've published several books: a four book series following Harry Spittle as he grows from hapless student to hapless partner in a London law firm; four others in different genres; a book of poetry; four anthologies of short fiction; and a memoir of my mother. I have several more in the pipeline.
I have been blogging regularly since 2014, on topic as diverse as: poetry based on famous poems; memories from my life; my garden; my dog; a whole variety of short fiction; my attempts at baking and food; travel and the consequent disasters; theatre, film and book reviews; and the occasional thought piece. Mostly it is whatever takes my fancy.
I avoid politics, mostly, and religion, always. I don't mean to upset anyone but if I do, well, sorry and I suggest you go elsewhere.
These are my thoughts and no one else is to blame. If you want to nab anything I post, please acknowledge where it came from.
Excellent choice, (When my staff complained because I didn’t accept their views expressed in discussion I always said I would listen to their views, but I had the responsibility for the decision)
You have raised the bar, sir!

He has strong albeit unsubstantiated opinions on most things.

I wouldn’t say they’re “unsubstantiated,” Geoff.
