It be time to update this page…
Hey up!
It’s now 02/11/15 and I am a little fitter and less forlorn.
I have been published in paper nine times: seven poems and two shorts.
I also have a new title: Pop-pop! Since his arrival, my beauuuuutiful grandson, Dexter, names me thus.
I am also up to 107,000 words on Merlin Awakes and finishing final editing.
Hope you are all well.
The star date is 05/12/13.
Me and my many personas have crash landed on the planet CpSingleton. A blog world.
If you are reading this then wrap up tightly, you have to and you may experience almost all of the levels of the human condition.
The posts switch frenetically from the philosophic to the surreal in the clicking of a mouse.
If you enjoy, feel free to express your interest. If you don’t enjoy the latter still applies. I can take it!! Promise.
Normal 2011 signal resumes…
I am a – not so young – writer of poetry and prose.
I have four children: two wonderful girls, a fantastic lad and Leeds United.
I have no strict genre. I write children’s poetry and stories, to edgy, stronger themes. Up to now I have stored them for my own and my family’s viewing, under the bed where the demon watches over them with dark, sinister eyes and talons sharper than an art teacher’s tongues.
Last year i thought bugger it and starred in several short films.
One, Playground, which is on the BBC Film Network, used the monologue that I wrote for the audition.
You should’ve seen the face of the receptionist, of the Manchester hotel, where the audition was being held, as I turned up dressed as the psychopath, Gordon.
It got the desired effect!
I then moved up to Cumbria and wrote and appeared in several live performances on stage.
2012. A local artist, Kayleigh Richardson, commissioned me to write a poem for her to paint a representation. I sent her, The Rise of the Robot Monkey Army.
Kayleigh painted a fantastic piece that blew my mind! From that we are collaborating on the Jacob Bear series of stories.
Three are published on Kindle, with another out soon.
I have published three “older people” stories: Two’s Company, the treacle Rush, Can Paradise Wait?
A family fantasy/humour: The Rise of the Sponge Cake Moon.
And a collection of nonsense poems and stories called: Space Here!
Two’s Company went to number seven in the charts
Oh and Two’s Company has been published, along with seventeen other Sci Fi short stories as part of a collection: End It!
Update! Life Before World’s End, a unique collection of poems and statuses that reflect the triumphs and setbacks of getting through the other side of a breakdown, is out on Kindle.
Not a bad start to the, so called, last year of the Earth. Now is the time to show the rest of you. I take my themes wherever i see them, whether in reality or dream-world. I hope you enjoy. If not tell me why. If so tell me why. Many thanks and be safe.
Oh,
I am also very probably alien by birth. But, don’t worry I don’t probe people. I consider that very rude.

May you also find other posts and pages interesting. Please enjoy!
Happy August to you!
Many thanks.
I will check all that out.
Hope all is well in your world!
Thanks for checking out What’s Broken. I’m impressed with all the work you’ve done. Part of being an artist requires flexibility, networking, and good luck besides talent. You seem to have that and more!
apart from that luck business! need a smidgeon of that lovely stuff!!
Thank you for dropping by. Looking forward to getting into yours!
Being ‘published’ sounds awe inspiring to me. I loved teaching children to write and was pleased when I became a headteacher that I could finally change the emphasis of the curriculum in my school to encourage children to write at length each week. The school rose through the ranks according to Ofsted, so writing must be good for you! Thanks for following my blog.
A pleasure.
I was invited to a couple of primary schools in Cumbria last year and had a great time writing nonsense poetry, Q & A and reading. The kids were so enthusiastic to have someone different in. I wished that i had had something similar when I was little.
It is lovely to speak to someone who seems to genuinely care about the kids! Well done! And thank you in advance from the kids. We remember the ones that care.
I just discovered that you are following my blog – “A Way With Words”. I appreciate that you have been drawn into my corner of the blogosphere and that you have hung around long enough to read my work (and evidently enjoy what you’ve read). I will be following your blog as well. Perhaps we can sit down with a virtual cup of coffee and scones some day and wallow in our mutual literary geniuses (or would it be geneses? Genesis?) You get the idea.
That would be a pleasure! I will set fire to the front room to make you as warm as possible! 😉
As one of my beloved followers, I would like to extend my sincere thanks and gratitude by sharing with you my exciting news of becoming a newly published author! And, of course, I wanted you to be among the very first to get a chance to read the rest of my debut novel, The Legacy of Blood, now available in e-book format.
(No worries if you don’t have a Kindle or other e-reader device, they have free ones to download on your computer. I went on Amazon and downloaded their “Kindle for PC” absolutely free! Love it! Here’s the link if you need it: http://www.amazon.com/gp/kindle/pc/download .)
Again, I want to thank you kindly for all the support. And you never know, as some of my followers have told me, you could say you’ve had a big hand in helping make Shelby Westland a household name! 😛
The Legacy of Blood on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Legacy-Blood-Sanguivore-Saga-ebook/dp/B00C5J7V2E/
Other e-reader retailers to follow soon!
Cheers!
XOXO
Many thanks. I too have several books on Kindle and when they are free will extend the same courtesy.
Thank you so much for visiting and following my blog, it means a great deal to me. I also have a sibling site to Beyond The Cracked Window titled Through The Cracked Window which together form a before and after personal perspective.
Your site is fascinating and I will be reading some of your published work, (congratulations on having them published).
Stephen.
And now thank you. I loved the layout of your site. Mine is a little boring. I haven’t time to be bothering with that.I have too much writing to do. That doesn’t good does it? But I am a writer not web designer. lol
Thanks for the congrats. I hope to have another two published soon. Take care and nice to virtually meet you.
Thank you for following the one beginner’s site such is mine. That means a lot to me. I am looking forward to explore yours as well! Seems that you have lot of interesting stuffs here. 🙂
We are all beginners. My blog is only 13 months old. Thank you for stopping by.

Hi Chris, a quick note to let you know Space Face is taking on a life of his own… http://wildersoul2.wordpress.com/2013/04/30/the-making-of-space-face-3d-part-i/
Chris! Have you seen this? Sounds like crazy spontaneous creativity erupting into youtube! I thought of the way Space Face is taking off, and how it may fit with this sort of endeavour. Sound interesting to you?

C. p.,
Your following my blog “Randa Lane…” has warmed the ol’ cockles of my alleged heart! My blog has undergone a change in focus to almost 100% poetry and haiku, which I’ve been writing and publishing for most of my adult life. Your blog, your poetry, your quirky personality (!) assure me that, in you, I have found a kindred spirit. I am honored to follow your writings! Should be quite a hoot. 🙂
Respectfully,
-R-
Thank you that was a lovely thing to say. Interesting profile picture. The photographer must have been a midget, because the tiny fool missed your top half! Look forward to swapping ideas.
So happy for you and all that you have going on! You definitely have this writing thing down. 🙂 God bless!
Not quite down yet, thank you though. I still have a long way to go yet. A publishing deal would be nice. Not a publisher are you? Heehee
Thank you for following my blog. Dianne
The pleasure’s mine. Looking forward to reading more.
Thanks for finding my poem/my page, and thereby leading me to you. Looking forward to reading much more of your oh-so-refreshing observations and ideas. 🙂
Ditto. Thank you for your kind comments.

Youth has its advantages, age, its ability to see through those advantages.
Welcome to the club of those of us marching to the crest of the hill, as you are, or down the other side, as I am.
And, thanks for dropping by my blog site.
Good luck to what appears a rising moon in your favor.
Interested in your short stories. Published my own collection, Through the Glass Darkly, on Amazon last year, and working to sift through my poetry for a second collection I’ll entitle “Slices,” which — if you comment on one or two, I’ll send you a copy gratis. You have to say “Include this in Slices” somewhere in the comment.
See you on the other side.
Will happily read your work and comment, with or without a free book. Thank you anyway.
Talking of free books, Space Here! is free for the next few days. Please take a look and comment.
Love the title, Through the Glass Darkly!! Will definitely check that out.
I only wish the moon was in my favour, because the world is kicking my shins repeatedly at the moment. It’s only our hard work and commitment that drives us to glory’s flag. Hmmmm, should write a poem about that! lol
Thanks for your time and good luck with your projects.
Thanks so much for following. All the best with the many strands of your work – it sounds like things are going well!
Anytime! Not getting there yet, but hopefully I’ve cleared the thistles for the new path. Take care!

Dear Charlie Papa Sierra India November Golf Lima Echo Tango Oscar November Esq:
I lived in Leeds for two years while studying to be a zoologist…this I failed, but it appears that I’ve eventually found you.
Much love
Trenton Babbage
Dear Tango, Bravo. Echo,
How can one fail to pass Zoology in Leeds! Just stand outside Queens hotel at 2am! Write Thesis. BOSH!
Get hit in tummy region by a raving loony for writing said thesis on pavement.
Also, not to dampen your fried potatoes, but I found you!
The Diploma is mine.
Smiles and gravy
CpSingleton.
Dear Charlie Papa Sierra India November Golf Lima Echo Tango Oscar November Esq:
I fear I was not clear; I passed my Zoology degree, I just never carried on to became a zoologist; but I did get my nose broken in Millennium Square…swings and roundabouts.
You found me…or someone told you to come here?
Either way; much &c.
Trenton Babbage
Dear Tango Bravo Echo,
Was it broken by a zebra?
They can be quite vindictive, despite their calm, two-tone exterior.
I found you via a brown bear named Wallace, but it was still my choice! I had to walk through the door. And it broke my nose!
Doors and Zebras are not to be trifled with.
Many thunks
Senior Singleton
Dear Charlie Papa Sierra India November Golf Lima Echo Tango Oscar November Esq:
‘Twas nothing quite so intelligent as a zebra, although I must confess I brought it on myself. I don’t of course think that this then negates your point about not trifling with zebras…a zebra brandishing a door is one of the most frightening things known to mankind; and a zebra holding a louvre door, is like a ninja.
Many ninjas
Trenton Babbage
Thank you so much for reading my posts and following my blog. I’ll be sure to keep an eye on your blog too.
my pleasure and thank you toooooo!!
Dear Tango Bravo Echo,
The mere thought of a Zebra brandishing a louvre door is not only frightening but ridiculously funny! Although please do not pass my amusement to your African equid pals. One I can avoid, by running downstairs, several band together to form a deranged barber-shop quartet and will sing me out into the open!!

Thank you. I’m touched.

Thank you very much for following my blog. I really enjoy your humourous (and quirky) style! Though humour is a main focus throughout your pieces (that I have read so far), there is a certain level of realism that makes your work relatable and interesting. It’s very witty. Style says a lot about someone. I am sure we would have become quick friends had we met in person! I have started reading your Bram Stoker series, and I am enjoying it immensely. Please keep up the excellent work. – Shannon
Hellooo,
No Fank you! Really enjoy your work!
We shall start by being blog pals and one may never know: one day while we are signing our books or on the TV we will look across and say hi in person!! Really glad you enjoy! I will have to finish Bram Stoker’s Spatula now!
Take care new blog friend!
The Carrot!
Thank you for coming by to visit and for following. I enjoy your wit and musings here. Congrats on all your success. Keep the nose to grind, or was it the other way around? 😉
Fanks to you tooooo!
I think it definitely works both ways. Take care of you and yours.
Hey – pssst! C.p! There is a showcase at wePoets of SpaceFace! I am laughing all over again!
http://wepoetsshowit.com/2013/11/16/wildcard-saturday-space-face-by-c-p-singleton/
My guides have just called and have demanded we do more!!
Haha – I get that feeling every time I see it, and laugh my head off!
Hi Chris,
I’m still working my way through the Crush It With Kindle book by John Tighe. He knows how to sell Kindle books! Perhaps it could be of help in selling yours?
Just a random thing I came across, thought you might be interested: http://happyreads.net/videos/
Interesting concepts. Fanks.
Thanks for Liking “Put a tail on it and call it a weasel” on “APhoenixInCode”!
Anytime.
I’ve nominated you for the Shaun’y Award for Blogging Excellence. Check out the page here: http://lilmisspoutinessegues.wordpress.com/awards/ and thanks for being an inspiration to me!
Hi Carrot. I just want to say I enjoy reading your poetry and would like to start the new year with a nomination for excellence. Here is the link and have a great new year 🙂
http://mydoodlepage.wordpress.com/2014/01/01/excel/
Bless ya! That is very kind!! My hopes and wishes flow your way.
Thank you for liking my post. How did you start the process of putting your books together? Did you self-publish?
No problem. Pleasure was all mine!!
I published via kindle. Very easy to do, but to be honest I haven’t had a great deal of luck selling, so always looking for other ways.
Good luck.
If you have any more questions feel free to ask.
Good luck for 2014!
Hi. Where can I take a look at “The Rise of the Robot Monkey Army” and its artwork? I love the title.
Thank you for popping round!
I have reblogged The Rise of the Robot Monkey Army just for you.
Hope 2014 is great for you!!
Thanks for coming by my log. I look forward to reading more of your work. 🙂
Ditto! May peace rain down on yours for 2014
I dig the new blog theme! Easy to dive into your work in an orderly fashion… And don’t take that as motivation to change it up! Good call.
Fanks! Took me three hours to find! Lol
Why doth wordpress hide the decent blogs so deep!?
CP, all power to your elbow, and thanks for the like!
no probs! and to yours!
Thanks for liking my blog and following! Yours looks interesting – looks like you do a lot of writing-type stuff. Following back.
it’s my pleasure!
I do do a lot of “writing-type stuff” yes. Whether it is any good is debatable! Have a fruitful 2014
Thank you for the follow on Petals Unfolding. May my blog enrich your life as it has mine! ~Amy~

Hello,
I just noticed you stopped by my little recovery blog, and say Thank You for coming by. I went and also read your Author Bio on Amazon.com, cute! I’m a new fan! I have a new writers blog too! http://anAuthorandWriterinProgress.wordpress.com 🙂 *Cheers* *Author, Catherine Townsend-Lyon* 🙂
Fanks!
I shall pop on by!

Thanks much! Appreciate the Support 🙂 *Catherine*
Humbled by your liking ~ Sea
You have no reason. I am but a fool with a pen. Or a laptop. Lol
Thank you for stumbling onto my blog and helping me to discover yours! Coming across your writing and self-description has so far been both an inspiring and validating experience. Looking forward to further reading!!!!
The pleasure is definitely more mine! Love your work!!
Keep in touch and hope this year brings every thing you need!
Enjoying what I’ve read so far. Thanks for the follow.
Fanks to you toooooo!
First off thanks for stopping by my crazy un paid blog.
So a poet, a writer of prose, an actor and an idiot. How do you manage to juggle all those things is something I´ll have to read about. I like the diversity of the blog. You got yourself a new stalker.
Firstly: FANKS!! Mine too is un-paid. Unfortunately.
I do not have enough hours in the day for what I’d love to be paid to do! Some would say obsession. And they not would be far off the bull’s eye. Haha
I fank you for the follow and look forward to reading your work.
All the best for 2014!
Fank you to you too. Nice I met your blog.
Thanks for the like and sub! I see you have some knowledge of the children’s genre. Perhaps you and I could be of some assistance to one another there. I have actually been looking for some people to “workshop” content with on my first children’s book (which will become a series). It won an award from my uni, but I want to be sure it’s good enough to acquire a publishing agent before I send it out/pitch it. If you’re down to read it and provide some feedback/criticism (both content and copy), then I would be willing to do the same for your pieces in the future. Comment me back if you’re interested and we could exchange emails (unless my thing already allows you to email me, in which case, go right ahead).
It would be my pleasurererer.
Not sure what advice i can offer of worth, but I am there if needed!
It’s greatly appreciated! Why don’t you shoot me your email and we’ll discuss it a bit more? 🙂
Thanks for following my blog, Though I Fall! It was my first “follow” and I am grateful for it. By the way, I love your tag: “PART TIME ACTOR, ASPIRING WRITER OF POETRY AND PROSE AND FULL-TIME IDIOT WITH A HEART.” Especially the “full-time idiot with a heart”. It speaks to me somehow…8^).
Yeah!! I’m número one! Good luck with your blog and enjoy!!
I’m looking forward to reading some of your blogs. Today I want to say thank you for following Yarrowhouse.
My pleasure!! Fanks to you!
Thanks for following my blog. Tis a privy ledge to be followed by someone as evidently talented as your good self. 🙂
Fanks! That’s very kind. Maybe too kind! Lol
Especially when you compare your gift!
Ooh, mutual appreciation. This I could get used to! 🙂
Thank you SO much for the “like” and the “follow” on my blog “Because of Christ Inspirational Poetry”! It’s a blessing to my heart knowing that my poetry is touching others : )
It’s a gift!
Hi there – thanks for following my blog! I’m rather new to poetry, so am learning a lot by perusing your blog. Love the Haiku – I might try it out! If you’re on Facebook, check out the Blackjack Poets page. Three lines of seven syllables each to add up to twenty-one. It’s fun and silly.
Blessings!
My pleasure!
and fanks and glad you enjoy!
Don’t go on FB that much, but will check out the suggested page. Hope all is well in your world.
Hi there! I loved your poetry, finally something I can relate to. Thanks for following my blog at A mom’s blog. Al the best, Zainab
Thats a lovely comment! Fanks! Look forward to ready more of yours. All the best you and yours. 😊
Hi, thank you for following! 🙂
my pleasure!!
Thanks for the follow.
Your thoughts and style render classicism to your poetry.
WOW! that is very kind of you to say!
Not a patch on your brilliant work!!
Hi! Glad you liked my post and thanks for the following, it gave me the opportunity to visit yours. Nice “About” page, looking forward to following you too 🙂
The pleasure was completely mine. Great blog! Fanks!!
one of my favorite names for a blog, even tho I dont really understand it. madstoffa’s crunchy house…
I will let you into a state secret, and if you repeat I deny it, it’s loosely based on about fifteen of my favourite comedy concepts! Does that help? I’m sure the world is less shadowy now, eh? 😊
Glad it struck a chord!! FANKS!!!
no, it still still seems like absolute nonsense, but that doesnt mean I like it any less. besides, the mystery is a large part of its appeal
Hahahahaha fanks!!

What a wonderful, wacky, whimsical, wow mind you’ve got there or is it here. I’m glad you’re older. I am too. I just started blogging a few weeks ago. I’ve always adored strange little poems and stories. Your thinking process reminds me of a little book I purchased back in1978 called Fold a Banana. I’ll visit back here for more of this unpredictable ride. Thank you for sharing your abounding talents and stories and poetry and………….

Awwww! What a wonderful comment! I look forward to reading yours!
I don’t have a thinking process. That would define me as a finker! 😊
Fanks AnneMarie! Take care of you and yours!!
Love your “ABOUT” It’s great to be disciplined about your frenetic ‘ captures ‘ Im like that. It’s almost like Poetic, creative,,Attention Deficit Disorder for me. . . So much to share all at once before the meat burns and the Macaroni overboils,while the ice cream melts, which is why I eat it first, or between it usually turns out to be.Life! What’s not to be inspired by?
Exactly! Whether good, bad or plain daft (which pretty much covers politics) there is always something to say!
Fanks for saying hi! It’s good to meet you!
Hey! 🙂 Thank you for the sub! There is lots more poetry to come. Keep coming back 🙂
Will do!! Ditto!

My pleasure!
Take care of you and yours!?
I see you don’t live in a box either and like to explore many themes! 🙂
Claustrophobia won’t let me allow walls of any sort to grow around me, especially when learning to write. I hope I have a reasonably decent voice to cover most subjects.
Great bloggers, such as yourself keep inspiring new routes. FANKS for that!!

Bless ya socks! That is very kind of you to say. Yours too is great! Keep up the good work!
What do you mean “sharper than an art teacher’s tongues”! I take exception to that, if you please. As an art teacher of seven years running, I have never once cut a student! Now, I have been wounded deeply by a fresh from art school high school teacher who told me I had skill but no talent. So… maybe there is some truth in your declaration.
Thanks for stopping in to my baby blog.
What does this “fresh from art school high school teacher” know? Upstart! You go show him/her.
I was referring to all the art teachers I have ever has the pleasure of being taught by.
You maybe different, but your upstart is of the same ilk it seems!
It was pleasure!
Take care of you and yours
Thanks for the follow sir, I appreciate it! Gonna explore your blog when I have a bit of time… 🙂

You, my dear, are too interesting a sort to pass up!
I’ve just had a sneaky peek at yours and, my sister from another mister, it appears the gratefully received sentiment is mutual! A pleasure to meet your talented acquaintance.
Nice to meet you!
And you! Hope the world is smiling where you are!
Although, when I click on you it says you are a phishing site!
I do hope that isn’t true!
Karma can be cruel you know!
Hi, thanks for the follow …I really appreciate it.
My pleasure! Keep up the good work. 😊
Gotta like someone with the honest humility and humor to confess to being a “full-time idiot with a heart”. All the best to you.

Michael
FANKS! That’s very kind! Glad you found something worth looking at! I certainly did with yours.
All the best to you and yours.
Dear CP Singleton42: Many thanks for visiting, liking and following. (However did you find me?) Is “42” your age, or the year of your birth? Am I being nosy? Yes. Anyway, I see there’s lots and lots and lots to read here. I’m going to have to take it slowly, bit by bit. But I’ll be back. 🙂
My pleasure. Great blog. It was passed to me by the CIA. Lol
42 was originally picked for its literary connection, but now I sadly have reached that age, despite the deal I made with the powers at be, several years ago. How. Rude! 😉
Hopefully you may find something you may like.
Take care of you and yours.
Thank you again for the kind words. I’m sure I’ll find much to like. Just give me time! 😃
Hi CP Singleton, thanks for all your likes on my blog! Good meeting you, Vonita 🙂

Welcome to planet Blog, continent Earth. I am extremely pleased to have you here and your follow has been reciprocated and appreciated. Carry on, and we will see you soon. Thanks.
A pleasure to shake blog hands!
Thanks very much for the follow. It’s great to see other poetry out in the world. I hope you continue to enjoy reading mine and I hope to see more of yours.
Nice to meet you, Elizabeth. Great work! All the best to you and yours!
Bula C.p., thank you for following my blog and for liking my (sole piece of good) poetry. I am (very) new to poetry and your pieces have opened my eyes to the fact that poems do not have to rhyme, they just need to have meaning (or not) 🙂 Thank you so much.
if I could be so bold as to offer any advice, even though I am not a master by any means, find your voice by going with your gut. and practice by writing. if the topic feels right with a rhyming form then go for it. If that’s your beginning then you are off to a tremendous start. keep at it for sure!
Fank you too! All the best to you and yours.
Thanks for liking my poem, “The Persistence of Memory!”
Man, I thought I was a genre-hopping madman; you’re all over the place!
Always good to hear from other “Full-time Idiots.” They used to call us Renaissance Men.
God bless.
My best to you and your family.
And to you and yours!
Great work!
Renaissance men?
Until that is either confirmed or denied i will stay an idiot with a heart? 😊
Nice to meet a like-minded madman!
So happy to have you following my blog. I do a lot of stage acting- 99% of it for free, more’s the pity! I’ll try to be eclectic enough to keep you interested!
I’m sure you will! Nice to meet you. All the best to you and yours
Thank you for liking my poem, Hippie Hill, on my blog, WordMusic. I truly appreciate it.
Brent Kincaid

Their shocked faces were a picture! Lol
My pleasure, you have a great site.
All the best for the future!
One of those priseless moments…
Thank you so much for stopping by my blog and liking my poem, ‘Oblivion!’ It means a lot. Also, you have a very contagious energy and enthusiasm which I love. I read a couple of your replies to comments on this page and really enjoyed them. 🙂 Even the widget labels on your website are great fun (eg: “Posts I Have Recently Posterated.”) Hahaha. I am smiling as I type this. May you stay happy and jolly always 😊
My absolute pleasure! Keep up the great work!
To place even the smallest smile upon another’s face is a great privelage and honour.
I am deeply humbled.
All the very best to you and yours!
May the light of love continually light your path.
Thank you for stopping by my blog and following it. It’s greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards,

Hi! I loved your blog and thanks for following me at https://wanderingofwords.wordpress.com/
Muchly ditto!!! All the best to you and yours!
Thanks for the follow. I see you don’t let boundaries confine you and you do all sorts of works in the arts. I’m trying to branch out too.
It works for me, being ridiculously eclectic! 😉
If I can offer any advice, and you don’t need to take it: don’t try. Just let go and flow!
Sounds glib, but it makes it more enjoyable. Again, what works for me may not for others.
You may want to ride a giant tortoise from Malaysia to Liverpool.
Whatever works. 😊😉
Thank you for following, “From the Gross to the Subtle”. I apologize that it took me so long to get over to your blog. I am new to blogging and my original intention was to engage with my students.

It is my pleasure! Great blog! From small seeds doth mighty oak trees grow, my friend!
Your students will be better for it!
