Bobby Parker is a self-taught writer and visual artist who grew up and currently lives in Kidderminster, West Midlands. Published widely in magazines in print and on-line, his debut poetry collection Blue Movie (Nine Arches Press) was published in 2014, followed by Working Class Voodoo (Offord Road Books) in 2018, and Honey Monster (Broken Sleep Books) in 2022.
The Walking Wounded Series is an erratic beast. Titles will be released in sporadic bursts over the coming years. 53 titles by 53 different authors, in an edition of 53 numbered copies each. Up until 2023, any copies left unsold after 9 months (from date of issue) were ceremonially burned and the ashes scattered into the River Wandle in south London. Now remaining copies suffer one of the following fates: gifted, buried, drowned, burned or intentionally left in public houses or on buses/trains, as the publisher sees fit.
Limited edition, signed chapbooks, all handsewn, embossed and printed at the Sick Tangerine workshop.
