Book Description

This is a husband and wife team who both enjoy writing in rhyme. A retired couple who moved to Cornwall fifteen years ago, they met many new friends on their karaoke weekends. Over the years Norman has merged from a musical background to writing childrens rhyming stories. His in-between years were centred on becoming a successful song writer. He has always enjoyed writing from the early age of eleven, where his rhyming storys were rewarded and displayed on the classroom wall. But in the 1960s after an unsuccessful period with several bands he met his wife to be Julie in London; then he wished only to develop their relationship and settle down. They moved to Manchester/Salford where he was originally from. Both shared interests in singing and writing in rhyme, but it wasnt until they moved to Cornwall that they both joined a poetry group from where they decided to start their joint venture and get a book published. Julie came from Vauxhall in London and used to bunk off school at every opportunity, she rues her missed days at school leaving without the know how to create a comprehensive composition. That all changed when she met Norman. Together he would explain the art of spelling and composition and as her confidence grew she blossomed. She tells about her life with friends and family, her pets; and her religious beliefs. These are the building blocks on which she has found her joy for creative writing.
