About Jan Allison

(Show Details...)

Thought I better get round to writing a bit about myself.

I'm married and live on the Isle of Man

My poetry journey began in November 2013 after my husband was diagnosed with cancer. The first poem I wrote was called was Splendid Isolation. This was written after we returned to the Isle of Man after his surgery in England. I felt so alone and vulnerable in the accommodation - all I really needed was someone to talk to face to face and maybe have a hug! I posted a few poems on a friends facebook page - mainly humerous poems . An on-line friend Jenny Brewer saw my poems and kept telling me to join here. It took about 3 weeks of her asking me if i had joined to pluck up the courage to finally post and 'Just Desserts' was the first poem I posted here - it is based on a true experience! Since then my life has been a whirl. In Jared Pickett's collaboration I teamed up with Darren Watson and we wrote together collaboratively as JaDazzle United.

I adore penguins - the animals not the biscuits!
Loveeeee tall men with greying hair
I love baking/cooking
I like to potter in the garden - need more time to commit to it but have an aged mother who needs me more than my garden does
Adore most types of music - will give anything a listen
Best ever gig - Knebworth 1986 when 'Queen' headlined

Jan Allison Reveals All!

Blog Posted:12/12/2024 2:32:00 PM

Ever since I joined Poetry Soup in 2014 I have hidden behind my dragonfly avatar as I wanted to be known for my poetry and not judged on how people perceive I look. However, I was recently interviewed by the local newspaper and an article with my photograph was published today so I thought it was high time I revealed the poet hidden behind the avatar

https://www.iomtoday.co.im/news/entertainment/not-for-prudes-manx-author-releases-book-filled-with-risque-rhymes-747451

On Monday i was interviewed by the local radio station (Manx Radio) for a podcast to promote my new book. Toilet Humour and Risque Rhymes.

Here is the link to the broadcast which went out on Wednedsay 11th December.I am featured about 10 minutes into the show if you want to hear the interview and a couple of poems from the new book.

A lovely friend Sonya has also done a tiktok of her cute dog Stanley 'reading his poem. i hope you get the chance to watch it - she is a creative genius!

I would encourage others to take the plunge and have a go at self publishing on Amazon. Terry Flood gave me wonderful advice on how to do it, and I would gladly pass it on.

Hugs Jan x

Jan Allison
Date: 12/15/2024 4:12:00 AM

Aww that is such a lovely comment Susan, the interview was fun and I was totally at ease as Howard shares a love of Toilet humour, we chose the poems together as you have to be careful with it being broadcast so as not to offend people but there was plenty of warning lol:-) hugs jan xx

Jan Allison
Date: 12/15/2024 4:09:00 AM

Aww thanks for the lovely comment Sandra, I don't seek fame but it was necessary to do a picture for the newspaper article - I only did a podcast with the first book. I just want to try and make folk smile with my silly poems and to make folk realise poetry doesn't have to be stuffy and boring it can be FUN:-) hugs jan xx

This is incredible news and it's so nice to finally put a face to my poetry friend Jan. Congrats on the interview. I'm not in a place right now where I can go listen to it, but I will be sure to do that later. You do look s little bit like I imagined you! A great pic, Jan.

Jan Allison
Date: 12/15/2024 4:06:00 AM

I've hidden away for 10 years Andrea so the time was right to come out of the shadows and the journalist asked for a picture so I went with it:-) hugs Jan xx

Jan Allison
Date: 12/15/2024 4:05:00 AM

Glad you listened to the podcast, Howard is so lovely to chat to. I was not nervous at all (I was a little nervous with the interviews back in January this year for the 'A giggle a day can chase the blues away' book) but this interview was just like chatting with an old friend, he has such a relaxed interview style and puts you at your ease. hugs jan xx

Jan Allison
Date: 12/13/2024 1:43:00 AM

Thanks so much Beryl, I've hidden behind the dragonfly since I joined soup so the newspaper article spurred me on to reveal my identity. the picture was very last minute. I was out at a Christmas function wearing a pretty short 'santa' dress when the journalist rang wanting the picture for later that day. Luckily I had my trousers and top to change back into lol. hugs Jan xx

Jan Allison
Date: 12/13/2024 1:40:00 AM

Ohh me on Calendar Girls that is a scary thought - would eat the buns forget covering me up lol - how I love that film lol. I thought I would go with a cheeky blog title, and changed it 4 times and am sticking with this one:-) hugs Jan xx

Jan Allison
Date: 12/13/2024 1:38:00 AM

Thanks so much Tania and i hope you have fun reading the book over the festive period. What i love is that readers can dip and dive into the poems and not have to read them one after another. hugs Jan xx

Michael
Tor

Date: 12/12/2024 6:36:00 PM

Jan I was so happy to listen to your lovely voice during the interview. Your English accent made it the more nicer. Great interviewer but I wished he would have shared more of your poetry. Your picture is lovely you have such a nice smile. I loved the story of the folks who kept asking for signed copies and they bought 8 books wow. That was great story and nice to know. I wish you many book sales and much fun dealing with people interested in your book. Thank you for sharing and I showed my wife her Christmas gift lol. xoxo

Jan Allison
Date: 12/15/2024 4:14:00 AM

It's all I wanted as a gift - I chose the Amaryllis as I love the peach/white colour over the red or white ones. We want for little in life Michael, his cancer was a huge wake up call as to what really is a precious gift and that is your health - something money can't buy! hugs jan xx

Michael Tor
Date: 12/13/2024 7:16:00 PM

Such a nice gift from your husband...

Jan Allison
Date: 12/13/2024 1:37:00 AM

Aww thanks Michael, I will see if i can find links to the podcasts for my first book. i read a few more poems out then. Howard was great at putting me at ease and bearing in mind I write naughty poetry we chose the poems to be read out on air. I hope your wife like the book. I've already had my Christmas gift from my hubby it is an Amaryllis which is starting to grow already. hugs jan xx

So happy and proud for you Jan!!! I will check it out! Glad to SEE you!! The best of luck to you Sugar!!!

Jan Allison
Date: 12/13/2024 1:34:00 AM

Aww thanks Mike, the time was right to 'reveal all' I couldn't continue to hide after the newspaper article - and the journalist asking me for a picture with the book. Its weird really as i was due to have an interview about the first book but the lady went on long term sick and no one picked up the story... but almost a year later I got into the local press . hugs jan xx

Your dragonfly image will always be associated with you, Jan. You have many sets of wings, my Sweet friend.

Jan Allison
Date: 12/12/2024 3:51:00 PM

The dragonfly avatar will always remain Lin, but I had to have the picture taken for the newspaper article and as its available on line i thought I may as well take the plunge and post it:-) hugs jan xx

Jan, you are a lovely lady, so happy to meet you. Obviously, you have come to a stage in your writing that you must reveal your true self and that is amazing but the dragonfly will always be within you, love Constance

Jan Allison
Date: 12/12/2024 3:49:00 PM

aww thanks Constance, the time was right for me to show my face so to speak but i will always hide behind the dragonfly avatar:-) hugs jan xx
