Dithering Chaps has launched a Kickstarter campaign to generate excitement around our next publication and gauge the demand for copies. Support The Ice Sonnets now!
Dithering Chaps' next publication, 'The Ice Sonnets' by Christopher James, is creating a buzz on Kickstarter. Watch our video to find out why. Join us - at the edge of the world! kickstarter.com/projects/76631…
As promised, here is the exciting news from Dithering Chaps - our first Kickstarter, to support the publication of 'The Ice Sonnets' by Christopher James. kickstarter.com/pro.../7663137… Please help us spread the word!
We have an exciting announcement in the pipeline about Christopher James's stunning poetry collection, The Ice Sonnets. While you're waiting to find out what it is, he's here to introduce himself ...
Lovely blog on our website, written by Christopher James. ditheringchaps.com/blog/the-ice-s…
The countdown is on - 20 days to go before we close our March to September submissions window for poetry. You can find out what you need to do to be in it to win it, here ... ditheringchaps.com/submissions and watch our video ...
Nicole Durman, nurse and poet, reads from her collection, Ghosts of Nighshifts Past, published by Dithering Chaps and available here: ditheringchaps.com/shop/p/ghosts-…
The pyrotechnic poetic skills of Helen Kay - here she is, reading her poem, "I am Sailing", from her collection, "It Was Never About the Kingfisher" at the launch, earlier this year. You can get your copy, here ... ditheringchaps.com/shop/p/it-was-…
Only a month to go before the end of our March to September reading period, so if you're thinking of submitting your poetry to us for possible publication in 2026, you're going to need to get a wriggle on! ditheringchaps.com/submissions
Breaking news - Britain is as beautiful as anywhere on earth! If you want to escape into nature, The Blue Pool, hidden in the heart of Dorset, offers the opportunity for quiet reflection and reflections.
Here's Nicole Durman, poet and nurse, reading from her collection, "Ghosts of Nightshifts Past", inspired by her work in A&E and hospice care. ditheringchaps.com/shop/p/ghosts-…
This is our favourite Dithering Chaps business lunch recipe - bbcgoodfood.com/.../mediterran…... - it's the fresh oregano that makes it. We'd give you a wine recommendation, too, but we need a clear head to read and appreciate all your submissions!
Just over a month to go before our current submissions period ends, and we get to choose our next published poet from the submissions we've received over the past six months. All the details are in our video and on our Submissions page, here: ditheringchaps.com/submissions
It's amazing how walking together clears the mind and conjures up ideas and inspiration. Here's the fabulous Japanese Garden at Kingston Lacy, looking its best, despite the heat - probably because it's being a good role model, and keeping hydrated ...
Contemporary poet and nurse, Nicole Durman, reads at the launch of her stunning collection, Ghosts of Nightshifts Past. Available here: ditheringchaps.com/shop/p/ghosts-…
It's great to see that Helen Kay's collection is still getting well-deserved recognition and praise ... thehighwindowpress.com/category/trans… - you'll need to scroll down the bottom of the page, but it's worth it! You can get your copy, here: ditheringchaps.com/shop/p/it-was-…
Today's photo is from a trip to our happy place ...
Beautifully juicy, plump sloes, picked from the blackthorn bushes on our walk around Holes Bay, Dorset, are now bobbing in a litre of gin, slowly steeping until Christmas. Like our dithering approach to choosing our next poet for publication - it will be worth the wait!
Our latest publication is available now! And it's available here >>> ditheringchaps.com/shop/p/ghosts-…
"A breeze swells a cotton nightie pregnant." Just one of the stunning metaphors in Helen Kay's remarkable poetry collection, It Was Never About the Kingfisher. Available here: ditheringchaps.com/shop/p/it-was-…
