Of all the amazing things that have been said about Astro Poetica, this letter from my one-time (I’d better not say “old”) English tutor has to be my favourite. I’ve been inspired by many things in my life and he is absolutely up there with the best.

I sent him a copy of the book and, after a few weeks where I began to think he hated it, he replied:

Dear Dom

Well – I’m incredibly impressed! Received your package this week, having just come back from holiday, and have read it several times. I think you’ve found your true “voice” and I love the illustrations as well. I’m glad that all my attempts to educate you seem not to have interfered with your natural talents and wonderful imagination.

And that’s the best mark I ever got from him.

You can buy either the paperback or hardback at Amazon now.
