 Angela wearing royal blue Shein dress with split sleeves. The black tee shirt says I am a published author.Ask me about my book. I wore it to the Writers' Summer School at the Hayes Conference Centre, Swanwick, Derbyshire in August 2024. I was wearing it in the queue for coffee. The lady next to me asked me about my books. I asked her what she wrote or hoped to write. Poetry. So I told her the titles of my books of poetry and on how to write poetry.
