Silly season coverage

It was probably a slow news week, but Medway News, one of the local newspapers covering the Kent area where Philip lives, kindly ran a profile of him by Max Evans in their 15^th July issue under the title ‘Writer who can rock it with the best of them.’

Favourite line from the piece was ‘His eyes flicker lambent like an antiques salesman, only he is selling you what you’ve already bought: your own passions, with his enthusiasm to wax up the finish’.

The photo with the article shows Philip in his ‘jaunty’ office overlooking the Medway. Eagle-eyed readers will spot that the blue and white Chinese pot Philip uses for his pens appears in the exquisite Philip Bannister painting featured on the home page for this site!
