Poetry came to me as a shy girl, dressed in sweet shades and glow. She winked at me, seduced me, and unaware, I fell in love with her. Holding hands, we trekked many terrains, visited wonderlands and monuments on earth. Come, let me carry you in my hands like a dream. You will love to explore my pages!

Everything in this cosmos is linked by a unique thread of uniting the imagination of every being and non-being. They are related to one another, strung together like beads and are connected by a magic faith. Life is expected to revolve like an escalator as the cycle hopes to move us forward despite the fear and pain of birth and death.

Unwritten, undiscovered lines still adore you in every colour and hue. Words and thoughts spring from your soul in a garden of intricately carved images and similes. You rule as the emperor, sitting on a thrown of sounding syllables. With an empty pen and mute mind, they wait for your smile.

Many of the vets I interviewed asked me why I was interested in World War II. I never forgot when Pearl Harbor was attacked. I was five years old and standing at the end of the kitchen counter next to the black art deco style radio. The announcer was very loud and excited but I didn’t know what he was talking about. My mother was at the other end of the counter standing in front of the kitchen sink washing a dish. All of a sudden she turned off the water and came over to stand in front of the radio. I had never seen a look on her face like that before. She called my dad to come here. Both of them stood in front of the radio with these shocked and unbelieving faces! I never forgot that experience. We next went to Sunday school and church and I remember all of the adults were talking to each other in low tones with stunned looks on their faces.

The TV series that was never made and that youÕve never heard of celebrates its 40th year with an exhaustive retrospective guide! Growing from a child's game, the bizarrely-titled The Magnet Editor ran for ten years and a breathtaking 47 series. In bringing the series to life, Nick Goodman drew from 70s pop culture including Doctor Who and The New Avengers, and shared it only with his bewildered mother and childhood friends. Jo Bunsell was one such friend and soon the pair would be transported into a shared universe of preposterous Ð and badly designed Ð monsters and non-stop adventure with their extraordinary and strangely-named hero, Cabin Relese. Goodman and Bunsell open up their archive of materials and memories, and take you on a roller-coaster ride into their world! Magnet Memories is an episode guide, a frank, critical, incredulous and nostalgic reflection, a snapshot of childhood in the 70s and 80s... and it's possibly the most wonderfully bonkers cult TV book ever published!
