For those who don't read blogs or know of Jan's successful first book, I've written a limerick for her and included it in my comment on her blog. She's included her interview in a podcast. I was asked to post my limerick here as well. If anyone would like to write a limerick in honor of her first publication, please join in and send me a limerick, or even a note to congratulate her. Thank you. Jan, our Queen of Poop has a sexy voice Crowned as Limerick Queen, she is our choice But oh my lordy Some are quite bawdy Book sales are good ~ she's getting a Rolls Royce by Lin Lane Jan's poems are clever and funny too Full of bawdy lines and some about poo Comedy at its best Her poems will attest Read" A giggle a day" to not feel blue by Tania Kitchin No rolls Royce or Winnebago camper van A sedia gestatoria, for Jan One with a floating loo For outdoor number two Carried shoulder high around the Isle of Man by David Kavanagh LONG LIVE THE QUEEN Jan Allison has written her first book It was a mammoth task she undertook Preview it on amazon I'll guarantee you'll want one I've read a bit and my whole body shook. by Tom Cunningham Jan nixed the idea of getting a Rolls She opted to put wheels on toilet bowls Her farts serve as a horn She ignores those who scorn And she never gets stopped to pay bridge tolls by Mark Koplin In a bathroom where tales tend to unfold And humerous secrets are often told There’s a plop and a cheer Laughter rings loud and clear In porcelain chambers poems are sold by Arthur Vaso Poetry Soup’s Queen of Poop has made herself a news scoop! She published her book and that’s all it took. A second book is now in the loop. by Linda Alice Fowler Congratulations Limerick queen Jan A poetess who’s from the Isle of Man Pleased your book is a hit A giggle a day gift From an hilarious comedian. by Beryl Edmonds

Thanks for offering one that was more hilarious when I found out about your mode of transportation. I was curious about the sedia gestatoria... I don't think Jan's bawdy writings would allow her to sit on the Pope's throne.

aww thanks so much :-) My next book - working title is (Toilet humour ... its a crap book)is in the bowels of production Tania, i will be flushed with success when I have enough new material for it. A friend suggested I self publish some of my more serious work - I can write the odd decent poem and have had some haiku published in haiku journals, but i will focus on poop and let the poetry aficionados publish their most excellent poetry :-) hugs Jan xx
