2003 – Sydney Opera House from Doyle’s Restaurant.
Doing an ego-search on Google, a link to this poem ‘A Found Memory’ appears as number 1 on the Alphabetical list of poems added to Poem Hunter , on 28th June 2003.
When I checked today, I had apparently posted 52 on there over the years! And most of those have been converted to a YouTube (very basic) video with (shudder) an automated voice. Some have awful music and the longer ones are interrupted, with ads half-way through.
So I spent most of today removing the hated videos, cancelling the automated and full-of-errors e-book then correcting and activating all of the 66 poem which were already listed on the site. (Just checked and the videos are still active, hopefully they’ll be deleted soon.)
I also added a note on each poem, to mention my old websites were closed but this WordPress blog and my Etsy shop were still active.
Be interesting to see how many actually link here…

Poemhunter was my first experience of daring to share my writings back in the day. Nerve-wracking and ultimately rewarding. I jumped ship to WriteOutLoud at the advice of a friend but both sites have had great communities (at times) and have been key in my development as a writer. A Found Memory is a beautiful piece of writing, Frances, very moving indeed.
