Nottingham Author Releases New Book "Pig Nonsense"

Nottingham, United Kingdom, November 18, 2009 --(PR.com)-- English author Mark Woods has released a collection of what he describes as "nonsense poetry and dubious verse" with subjects ranging from pigs in garters to military mice!"

Mark has always enjoyed the more surreal side of art and literature and this has influenced this eclectic compilation. By turns amusing, thought-provoking but above all, always very strange.

In our busy lives there should always be another way of looking at our lives. There's usually something darkly amusing about even the most seemingly desperate situation, Mark feels.

Both writing and illustrating the book himself, Mark has chosen to self-publish through the on-line publisher Lulu.com. "I find the modern way of publishing for yourself means that you retain full artistic control along with the ability to make your own business decisions" he says. "The end result is that you publish a book which you are truly happy with. I'm very happy with my first collection of nonsense poetry and hope to be publishing many more books in the future".
