This blog was mainly about my time living in Madrid and my return to London
in 2010. I will not be updating or adding to it from March 2013.

Welcome to the Cryptwriters blog "Work in Progress"
Here you will find a selection of our work: poetry, prose and other Cryptwriters-related works.
The Cryptwriters group grew out of an earlier project at St. Peter's called Voices From the Crypt initiated by Anne-Marie Glasheen, which ran from 2007—2008. When this project ended the suggestion was made that I should start a regular writing group to be set up at the Crypt. With a lot of help from a lot of kind people including Inspire, the London College of Communication (which provided the initial funding for the project) and the Cryptwriters' regular tutor, Gale Burns, the group was born. It held its inaugural meeting on 16 October 2008 in The Crypt of St. Peter's Church, (from which the name is derived) just off Walworth Road, SE17, where we still meet today.
The ethos of The Cryptwriters is best explained as follows: We meet every other Thursday to read, critique and encourage each other in our writing and, under the expert guidance of our tutor, Gale Burns, to develop, attune and calibrate each individual's writing ability to the best levels we can attain.
Cryptwriters can be contacted by telephoning
020 8291 4108, emailing either Stephen stephenrayton@yahoo.co.uk, or Gale josgale@jgdburns.org.uk, or why not visit our Facebook page and leave us a message?
Please feel fee to browse, comment, follow or join us and add some work of your own. And remember to recommend us to your friends.

As I was driving through Peckham and onwards I saw the beginnings of a marvellous skyshow, and was tempted to stop and photograph a sequence through to the sunset, but out of a sense of duty, dammit, I pressed on. As it was, they started the reading about 15 - 20 minutes late. Double dammit.
David, I have a few more. They might not be that brilliant, but they are not bad... anyway, look at the mice department.
