Poetastery

by Lancelot Layne

Overview

Poetastery is a collection of mainly nonsense verse although you may find something more serious or noteworthy in there if you delve deeply enough. Designed for ages 5 to 105 most of the poems are innocent enough and are not intentionally seditious. The book is intended to entertain and amuse. You will find unlikely stories about fish catching men, auctioneers selling original wheels and a Grandfather who used to be the Pope. Where the Inspiration came from for such ludicrosity, only God or Socrates knows.

Doctor Fish started off life (in c.1983) as a TV Sitcom, with 2 Pilot episodes being submitted to the Radio Times Comedy and Drama Awards 1990 (category for aspiring amateur writers) and achieved equal 2nd place (with no first prize being awarded that year).

Doctor Fish was re-written from scratch as a Novel in the early 2000’s but this never reached completion.

In its final version, it has been written as a Stage Play although it could easily be adapted for Screen or TV.
