Very often the best kept secret in writing is the moment when authors or poets suddenly realise an idea would make a smashing story, poem, play, whatever. Brian Moses, with unheard of generosity, allows us into that magical moment giving us millions of ideas we can use to create poems of our own. Sandy Brownjohn lit the torch but Brian Moses waves it high for all to see.
