In all my wyrd wanderings, I’ve learnt to trust to True Faery North, to navigate towards the gleaming land that enfolds ours. Even if you don’t get to it, to walk in that direction is important. – Tattoo Labyrinth Dave #WyrdWanderings https://t.co/KzQPO296tE

@SimonGuy64 It is the Rupert the Bear problem. Epic poetry to tell tales windered from Beowulf to Byron to the Daily Express. Now, my love of Rupert is deep, but it is love often in-spite of the verse. Even the best fantasy verse like Beowulf can be a hard sell to current readers.

@SimonGuy64 Could something as rich and wonderful as Boneships be done in verse? Of course. Could it climb over the barrier of being seen as whimsy and unnecessary? Possibly. If I were trying to do so, IÛªd ensure it was so good in performance that the Û÷liveÛª pushed the ink.

@SimonGuy64 And the problem is that the perception of verse storytelling always starts from a default of Rupert and those bits of English Literature A-level you didnÛªt enjoy at the time. That perceptive problem is I suggest, a sales handicap.

@reesmf @SimonGuy64 My love of Rupert is profound, but even as an eight-year-old, the labour of hitting a rhyme became quite visible to the reader.
