Halifax, Nova Scotia, October 22, 2006 - InkSpotter Publishing is proud to announce the release of Betty Dobson's first poetry collection, Paper Wings. The Canadian writer has been honing her craft and winning awards for more than a decade. Over the years, her poetry has appeared in such diverse publications as Sol Magazine, The Book Lover's Haven, AMAZE - The Cinquain Journal, Apollo's Lyre, and 52%, as well as the anthologies Check the Rhyme: An Anthology of Female Poets and Emcees, Body Language: A Head-to-Toe Anthology, Passing, The Binnacle Ultra-Short Edition, Satire of the Inanities, and Epiphanies and Other Absurdities. UK-based freelance writer Mary Cook was the first to buy a copy of Paper Wings and just as quick to comment. "When I saw the picture of the author dancing 'Swine Lake' in her writers' publication InkSpotter News, I just knew I NEEDED this book," she says. "I wasn't sure whether I would dip into it or read it at a single sitting. Having done the former, I'm about to do the latter. "There is humour and pathos in abundance," she adds. "One poem--I won't say which, because it touched a truly personal aspect of my life--almost moved me to tears. The imagery throughout is that of the natural born poet." Paper Wings is also a first for InkSpotter Publishing. The long-time newsletter publisher is making its first foray into book publishing, with many more volumes planned over the coming months, including the international, interdenominational Holiday Writes.

InkSpotter Publishing provides publishing, writing, editing, proofreading, transcription, and research services to the global marketplace. We also publish two monthly newsletters: InkSpotter News and Heritage Writer. Betty Dobson, Publisher |
