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:
July 22nd
A whole month has gone by and what have I done?...
Nothing, that's what.
It's a good job the Winamop faithful have been more
productive, the weight of my in-box has finally prompted me into action, and
here it is: The latest edition of Winamop!
It's a good one too; let's start with a super little
tale from Jared Booth. Jared has penned a couple for us and they are always
good, this time there's some trouble with graffiti.
Maxwell Chandler is now world famous. From his humble
beginnings on Winamop he now appears all over the place with his music
(especially jazz) reviews. I'm therefore very pleased to welcome him back to
Winamop with a new CD from Retta Christie clutched in his oh-so-cool hands.
A little poetry now, as Andy Bate ponders on the news,
especially a particularly "Bad Robert". I think you'll guess which one he is
referring to!
More poetry comes from G David Schwartz. David has a
nicely humorous style, even when he has to visit the hospital...
And finally another story. Jerry Vilhotti whips up a
stream of narrative here as Johnny and Linda Ann take a train journey.
That's it for this time, just a reminder that Winamop
poet David McLean's new book is out soon from
Erbacce.

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.
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 well over 250 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 (yes, a real one!).
