About the Poetry.

The poems in this collection include ballads and acrostics, and quite a few songs with refrains. What they don't include is free verse or any of the strict syllabic forms. The style used might be called retro-Victorian metrical verse, but don’t let that trouble you. These pieces were conceived from a fascination with the worlds of fantasy and a joy in the music of the English language. Despite, or perhaps because of, their subject matter, they are not intended for younger readers.

 About the Poet.

Sally Odgers has been writing verse for forty years. Several of her poems have been published in collections and anthologies from mainstream publishers in Australia and the UK, and she has produced a handful of rhyming picture books as well as a how-to book called Writing Metrical Verse. Sally is a full time writer.

Spinning Pearls-Fantasy Poetry

The darkness has always fascinated humankind. From it, we have conjured countless creatures, as unchancy as the fairies. In this tour, you will meet some of those beings of the darkness and dawn. They dwell in silent places, just beyond the bounds of sight. Just sometimes you might be aware of them, out of the corner of a disbelieving eye.

About the Author

Sally Odgers has been working in the writing industry since her teens. Her first book was published in 1977, and since then, only one year has passed without at least one more of her titles hitting the shops. Her first author talk, in the 1970s, began a chain reaction which led to tutoring writers on-line and face to face, working as an agent's reader, and eventually to manuscript assessment and editing.

 Sally has held writing workshops and author talks in every state of Australia, as well as in the NT and ACT. She has had books published in hardback, paperback, mass market, trade, educational, audio, e-book and foreign-language editions. She has also written plays, songs, articles, poetry and television scripts.
