My novel The Cellar Gang is available exclusively from this site, and if you buy it, I hope it makes you laugh.

As you will see when you visit the shop, this special edition is limited to five hundred copies.

“Cellar Beware -
Most people know John Carder Bush from the photos he took of his sister Kate which adorn the covers of albums like The Hounds of Love and The Sensual World. But, actually, he was writing way before Kate launched her career, and has now decided to publish a selection of his novels and short stories through his own Cellar Press. The first, ‘The Cellar Gang’, is the darkly comic tale of a group of animals struggling to survive in the cellar of a large, old house while, above them, Barry, Bess and their children are preparing for divorce and separation.”

Many thanks to those of you who stepped into my imagination and bought The Cellar Gang, and many thanks for all the positive feedback which is much appreciated.

There are still some copies of The Cellar Gang available, but not many. Because of the production quality of this little book, it makes the perfect gift for a friend who enjoys things unusual and unique.

Cellar Press have recently published two collections of poetry by my long time friend and fellow poet, Tony Buzan. These are available as a signed pair in their own box from http://www.buzanworld.com/BuzanBooks.htm
Requiem for Ted is a collection of poems related to Tony’s friend and colleague Ted Hughes, the late Poet Laureate, and Concordea is a collection in praise of the late supersonic jet, Concorde.

The books have the same high quality standard of production as The Cellar Gang, and are a limited edition of five hundred, all signed by Tony.

Unfortunately, my other projects are still on hold, but, as a gesture to appease any unfulfilled expectations, you can download for free five of my poems read by me and set to music. Each poem comes from a collection of  my spoken word and music, and, apart from the violin and some backing vocals, I’m playing all the instruments, arranging and producing as well as recording my own original compositions.

Some of the tracks might be regarded as containing poetic adult material, which includes poetic swearing and poetic sexual language, so if you feel you might be offended, don’t listen! Turn the page to acces these tracks.
