They reached out to writers, inviting them to create something that responded to, reacted to, or was inspired by Robert Southwell's renowned poem \"Tymes Goe by Turnes.\" Editor Cherry Potts has always found solace in this poem during times of crisis.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe poem beautifully captures the ebb and flow of fortune, emphasizing that neither good nor bad experiences last forever. It encourages individuals to seize the moment and make the most of their circumstances.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile these works do not directly address the COVID-19 pandemic, they carry a subtle echo of the challenges and uncertainties we have all faced during this time. Katie Margaret Hall's epic train journey, \"New Orleans to Vancouver,\" reflects the sense of isolation and longing for connection that many have experienced during lockdown. Jackie Taylor's \"Rewilding\" explores the complexities of relationships and the search for nourishment in a world that feels fragmented.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLike Southwell's poem, these stories and poems strike a delicate balance between dread and hope. They remind us that even in the darkest of times, there is always a glimmer of light and the possibility of transformation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe anthology features the work of a diverse group of talented writers, including Brooke Stanicki, C.L. Hearnden, Claire Booker, Elinor Brooks, Jackie Taylor, Jane Aldous, Jane McLaughlin, Julian Bishop, Karen Ankers, Katie Hall, Keely O Shaughnessy, Kelly Davis, Laila Sumpton, Linda McMullen, Lynn White, Margaret Crompton, Neil Lawrence, Patience Mackarness, Pippa Gladhill, S. B. Merrow, Sean Carney, and many others.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTheir stories and poems offer a glimpse into the lives of individuals navigating the challenges of the pandemic and beyond. They explore themes of resilience, connection, and the search for meaning in a world that is constantly changing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eArachne Press's decision to continue with the festival despite the uncertainty is a testament to their commitment to promoting literature and supporting writers. This anthology is a beautiful reflection of the human spirit and the power of creativity to inspire and uplift us during difficult times.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 86g\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 129 x 196 x 11 (mm)\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781913665180\\n                            \\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44099005284602,"sku":"9781913665180","price":1.07,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/547aeb55b50d3f61dd84c9156bfe0e1d.jpg?v=1621193620","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/tymes-goe-by-turnes-stories-and-poems-from-solstice-shorts-festival-2020","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
