Mother's Milk Books

I had some great news this week from Mother's Milk Books - my heartfelt 'Poem for Imogen' and  lighthearted short story  'My Gadabout Gran' were both commended in their 2015 Writing Prize Competition.. Its great to receive such positive feedback from the judges Sarah James (poetry) and Zion Lights (prose).

I recommend that friends who write keep an eye on the Mother's Milk Books site for submission and competition opportunities. Here's a bit of background:

"Mother’s Milk Books is run solely by at-home mother and founder Dr Teika Bellamy (although husband Tom helps in spare moments – he’s an especially good proofreader!). Mother’s Milk Books receives no grant funding and the press survives purely through sales of books, cards and prints. The press was set up in 2011 and our first title Musings on Mothering, edited by Teika Bellamy, was published in September 2012. This charity anthology of art, poetry and prose about pregnancy, birth and breastfeeding continues to raise funds for La Leche League GB, a breastfeeding support charity."
