A short break from the poetry laboratory
The Stunner will return in August! In the meantime, please enjoy the show's very first video episode.
Side story: as soon as I stopped recording, I remembered the word: 'constructive criticism'. Yes, I welcome that and I would like to invite you once again to share your thoughts, comments and suggestions. Or just say hello! That would be nice.
