July 2026
It's been a bit quiet lately, maybe because the weather
has been unseasonably hot? Nobody wants to sit in a stuffy room typing on a
beautiful day do they?
Well, some people do (thank goodness!), and it's those
people's work that you will find here in the July edition of Winamop.
Before we get to it I must inform you that Gary Beck has a
new book out at
Amazon
(I think they'll do well..) it's called After the Long Sleep and
it's published by Cyberwit.
That's it, let's go!
Andrew
Lee-Hart brings us an unsettling tale of a future dystopian society
where it's not safe to speak out. Here we find Vicky trying to contact her old
friend Cat.
Tony
Dawson introduces us to Brittany who has recently made some changes
in her life.. for the better! It's called HRT.
KJ Hannah
Greenberg. Dorothy is in trouble.. double trouble! How will she
cope, how will Chet cope? With difficulty probably. Read Twins
and see.
Frucht-Schleifen brings us a 20
minute piece of ambient music called Jupiter from his album "The
Gas Giants". It's based on the sounds that emanate from Jupiter as captured by
NASA.
Terry Brinkman has a great new
piece of art called Fast Ducks. It's on his art page along with
all his other pictures too.
KJ Hannah Greenberg presents some
more of her photographs. This time they are mostly scenes from Israel.
Diane
Webster writes excellent poems and here we have five of her latest.
They are: The Car Man - Pier Distance - Lake Debris - Stone Lake
and On The Verge.
Richard
LeDue is off on his holidays, but he's a hard-working poet and he
has left us these poems to tide us over whilst he's away: Where do they
come from? - The Health Benefits of Wine and Homemade
Darkness.
KJ Hannah
Greenberg brings us another three intriguing poems today. They are
Word Sappers - Bicycle Monarchs and Blep.
Tony
Dawson has supplied us with some poems in addition to his story
above. The titles are: Message In A Bottle and In A
Rut.
Terry
Brinkman is ever reliable and he has more poems for us. They are:
Chalk Scrolled - In The Distance - Dad's Boat - Olivet's Weed -
Type-writer Royal and Time For Walking.
Well, that's it for the summer edition. I guess it'll be
feeling autumnal by the time we return?
Come back and see won't you..

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 800 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!
