Greetings, one and all.

Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more!

HENRY V

Greetings, one and all.

To those of you, Shakespeare lovers, who are still working on your 2021 Muspa poems, please remember that the deadline for submitting them is the 25th of this month. Happy writing!

Greetings, one and all.

There is a tide in the affairs of men,

Which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune;

Omitted, all the voyage of their life

Is bound in shallows and in miseries.

On such a full sea are we now afloat,

And we must take the current when it serves

Or lose our ventures.

Brutus to Cassius in JULIUS CAESAR

Greetings, one and all.

Shakespeare theatres and festivals are reopening all over the world, folks. Check out the ones near you.

Greetings, one and all.

Just one last point about our poetry award. Muspa is an international, non-profit entity. In other words, the award is open to all countries and nationalities.

Greetings, one and all.

Please note that submissions for our poetry award (Muspa) can be on any subject. All we ask is that Shakespeare be mentioned either in the title or the poem itself. Happy summer!

Greetings, one and all.

The poets are on fire! We have started receiving entries for the annual poetry award we launched a couple of months ago.

Let your ink flow (or your keyboard ring)…

If you need to refresh your memory about the submission requirements, please visit our blog and follow the links to MUSPA.

Greetings, one and all.

Musketman Shakespeare joined Instagram last month. Just as he does on this site, he will be following everyone who follows him on Instagram. See you there!

Greetings, one and all.

A red letter day coming up. We are going to launch an annual poetry award later this month — on the first day of spring. Mark your calendars!

Greetings, one and all.

Opening paragraph of THE CORISCO CONSPIRACY:

My father served as a courier in the Catholic underground and was, therefore, always privy to a plot or two to assassinate Queen Elizabeth. I followed in his footsteps from the age of ten until that fateful night in November 1605 when our dream of an all-Catholic England was brought to an end with the arrest of Guy Fawkes.
