Welcome to all of you with enthusiasm for
the literary, the musical and the artistic. We have stories, we have poems, we
have pictures, we have music reviews, and with your help, we're constantly
adding more.
The site is regularly updated with new material, let
the editor introduce the latest edition:

It's a sad time here at Winamop.
We've lost one of our founding fathers; JBP. It was his
idea that there should be an outlet on the Internet for the sort of material
that doesn't attract major publishers - yet ought to be seen. Read my little
tribute to him.
Back to normality now, and Harry Downey returns with a
story about an unexceptional girl called Sharon. What's wrong with being
unexceptional? Nothing!
Welcome to Matthew H Emma, whose first story for us
features the new President of the Salzburg Country Club Board of Directors. He
has an agenda item that is likely to cause a stir. It's called Unfinished
Business.
Next we hear from regular contributor Donal Mahoney. This
story is the reply to a letter recently received, the writer has not been in
contact since a traumatic break-up 40 years ago...
Poetry now, and Paul Tristram returns with another
collection of his excellent poems. I particularly like Disaster Comes In
Many Shapes And Sizes .
JD DeHart is back. This time he seems to be a little
disappointed in the way things are going. Me too! Here we have Poor Me, Fish
Bones & Cold Woods, You Knew Me When and The Digital Age.
Lastly this month we have some new material from poet
Taylor B. Here we have If I Die, Time l, Time ll and Fresh
Laundry.
Well there we are.
All's well that ends well I guess?

Winamop was conceived on a whim, is run on a
shoestring, ignored by the many, loved by the few and has continued unabashed
since 2003.
All human life is here, experienced people,
skilled writers and rank amateurs, sometimes they hit the mark, sometimes they
belly-flop (sometimes they mix their metaphors). You pick up the pieces and
make of them what you will. Find out about us here
and about the site here.The contributor's
guidelines are here and the e-mail button
is below.
We hope to continue to maintain a showcase for new writing
which will grow as you, dear readers, augment the efforts of the in-house team.
We have over 400 unique pages so far but, quite frankly, we need more...
Have a good look around and if you feel that you'd like to
contribute in any genre, then don't be shy, send it in! The copyright remains
yours, and you could win a mop (unlikely, as I've run out).
Jump straight to a category using the buttons at the top
of the page, they work from any page. Remember, it's all free and is made from
100% natural ingredients!
