The Bob Dylan in the 60s is out and receiving good reviews:

The Roy Harper and Captain Beefheart books are still going strong and eliciting some excellent reviews:

The Neil Young book is done and dusted and is due out on the 23rd of this month. Time to preorder:

I’m halfway through the first draft of my Beatles White album book. That will probably see the light of day in the Autumn.

Which means that by next Autumn I should have no less than seven books out with Sonicbond Press. I’ll probably be working on an eight!!

All my Sonicbond books are available from the publisher’s site Burning Shed:

Search – opher (burningshed.com)

I have just released my 34th book of poetry – Wonder, Awe and Anger in Rhythm – which seems to be doing well.

Wonder, Awe and Anger in Rhythm.: Amazon.co.uk: Goodwin, Opher: 9798878850643: Books

On the Sci-Fi front I am working with an editor to knock the Cabal into shape (With a rename) with the hopes of getting that published. Many others to follow!!

It certainly has been a busy year!!

Thank you all for all the support – buying the books, leaving likes, ratings and reviews. It means a lot!!
