Magpie Tales Book Plates

I am preparing a post about Close Reading and Analysis as part of my writing process, but we are experiencing extreme heat in Australia at the moment ( 85 F inside the house, 98.6 F in the shade at 9.30am) so here's a short post announcing the arrival of my bookplates.

If you were an overseas reader and wanted to save costs on a signed copy you can buy from the cheapest retailer for your location below, and then contact me and I will send you out a signed bookplate that you can stick in the front of your copy.


As you can see, I did buy myself a mug with my book cover and the first poem in the collection on it, this was mostly because Vistaprint were going to charge me $10 postage for two sheets of stickers, mostly... nothing to do with stroking my own ego.

In Magpie Tales Australian poet SB Wright reveals a keen eye for capturing both people and places, his deft imagery transports the reader effortlessly from rural Australia and beyond. The pieces within explore a changing inner landscape too, where the contested terrain of small town identities and national issues are played out in clear, lyrical verse.

Magpie Tales is his first poetry collection.
