		<description>Hi Bob

Thanks for the kind words.

I didn't enter, haven't written much recently. Blogging a fair bit and web development tasks. But will get back to it. Try for the Bridport next I think.

Best of luck with it, let me know how you get on.

Cheers

		<description>I liked your poem Ivor.  Some great metaphor.
I also entered the Telegraph competition this year but never even had an acknowledgement from them.  Did you get a response?
The deadline for the results has psssed but I never saw any poems published.
Do you know if the results are out yet?

		<description>That is your interpretation rather than any reality. I would suspect that there is no more of a "parable" in this that if he wrote about porridge. The truth, as ever in life is rather more mundane one suspects:

Boris has a full time job as Mayor of London, he is attending the Conservative Party Conference and has a regular Tuesday slot to fill for the Daily Telegraph. As most experienced journalists, he will always have a "filler" story to hand for when circumstances and time presses.

Finally, unlike the "Ruth Kelly to Resign" story, Boris is unlikely to want to field a 'distracting story' during conference. Please do check under your bed. Oh you do, jolly good.</description>

		<title>Comment on Paul Auster - Travels in the Scriptorium by Glenn Robinson</title>

		<description>Yes, I would agree with the above comments. Another aspect of this work that I would also like to highlight is the use of 'imaginative reasoning'. It appears in other works of Auster, perhaps most successfully in Oracle Night. The creative ability to fill in the gaps..., not just in the processes of reading and writing but also in everyday life is extremely important. Auster seems to recognise that this has limited results however. Imaginative reasoning is not an epistemology but rather a more functional and useful ability that does not claim absolute knowledge or a God's eye view. Such an ability is underdetermined and always open to revison but as such has an ethical component to it. It is more forgiving and empathatic and at moments sublime.</description>

		<description>What a great poem.  I want to use it with my fourth grade students as we explore fossils - 

I think it would make a great introduction.</description>

		<description>It would be really interesting to see how you get on. I thought this exercise might be useful because of the mind mapping. Post your story as a comment when you've done it.</description>

		<description>Good on you. I use writing prompts and exercises for workshops all the time - and find a lot of them generate initial drafts which become finished work for me. I'll give tyhis one a fly in a couple of days (busy teaching and wrapping up a a manuscript right now).

		<description>We read Black Boy last year. It is a great book. I remember chapter one was a long chapter and the scene with the cat and the house burning down are classic. The end when the Father is in the field is really powerful. I agree with what you say about this chapter. Isolation and fear carries on throughout the story.</description>

		<description>This is an interesting take on TTTC. Comparing it with Slaughterhouse 5 was interesting. I think that it makes it a bit hard to follow without reading the Tina Chen article. But this will help me on an assignment I'm doing. Thanks.</description>
