Boots to Books. A new publishing venture

 The Boots to Books Project

The Boots to Books Project sets out to record and expand on our guided walks in written form. Over the next three years we plan several booklets, based on the many  local walks we have devised and delivered since we set up in 2010. The first booklet in the series: “Explore Folkestone Artworks with Pavement Pounders “ appeared in May 2013 to tie in with the Creative Foundation’s launch of the Folkestone Artworks.

Other titles will include: St Eanswithe And The Churches Of Folkestone, The Building Of Folkestone and Literary Folkestone

Thank you to Folkestone Town council  for providing funding to get this project started

Readings from Transitions 2 and music from Maiuko at The Dragon Café

Picture
The Dragon Café is Mental Fight Club’s latest creative project:
a relaxing café and imaginative space, open to all, located in the
Crypt of St George the Martyr Church, opposite Borough tube
station. The creative director of Mental Fight Club is Sarah Wheeler , 
one of the contributors to Transitions 2 which was launched at the 
Folkestone Book Festival in November 2012.
To launch the search for contributors to Transitions 3 which we intend
to publish in May 2013. We are staging readings from Transitions 2 with
music from the Afro-jazz singerMaiuko a contributor to both Transitions 1 
and 2.
Transitions 3 invites people to write about their journey into mental illness 
and their recovery from it. By turning back to myth perhaps we can look 
forward to a greater story of which we are part, and by understanding 
the universal aspect 
of our own personal experience be freed from its constraints. 
Our theme will be Ascent. Recovery. 
Transformation. Reintegration.

‘So much good writing is in itself a form of health’

Funding for a third Issue

We now have funding for a third edition of Transitions



We are delighted to announce that issue 3 will be published jointly by Pavement Pounders CIC and "The Mental Fight Club"


Transitions, a journal of crossings, is a forum for ideas celebrating crossings whether they be universal or personal, real or imaginary, in story, article or poem. It invites a personal take in other words of the universal themes of transition and transformation.

Transitions 1 was launched in September 2011 during the Folkestone Triennial to reflect the mythological concepts of migration, home and otherworldliness

Transitions 2 again addressed transitions and transformations but with the ‘liminal’ and the ‘fountain’ as its particular themes

Transitions 3 invites people to write about their journey into mental illness and their recovery from it. By turning back to myth – even that of Orpheus’ or Demeter’s descent - perhaps we can look forward to a greater story of which we are part, and by understanding the universal aspect of our own personal experience be freed from its constraints.
Our theme will be Ascent. Recovery. Transformation. Reintegration.
