What he can be invited to do

Readings, visits, and interviews

Dates and availability are confirmed by Vincent before anything is announced.

A seated audience listening in a hall

Poetry readings

A half-hour to an hour of poems from both books, chosen for the room. Suitable for libraries, senior centres, and community halls.

Readings run from a short set of poems to a full programme, shaped around the room. Fee and travel are quoted per invitation.

An empty classroom with rows of desks

Schools and classrooms

Thirty-six years teaching American history, and poems that work for students: memory, service, and the stories behind a name on a stone.

Group size is whatever the space holds. Programmes are adapted for the age of the room.

A studio microphone in a recording room

Interviews & press

For newspapers, journals, podcasts, and radio. A short and a long biography, a current photograph, and both covers are available for use.

A press kit (short and long biography, current photograph, both covers) is sent on request.

Take the walk yourself

Start with the garden. My Cemetery Friends is in paperback now, and the hippopotamus poems are a short, funny follow-up for anyone who needs one.
