During 2020 and into 2021 John Kay was a regular contributor to Pat Sissons' lunchtime radio programme on BBC Radio Solent, where he had over 40 poems broadcast. His most recent poetry collection (2019) is entitled 'She Stole My Northern Heart', published by A Million Ways Press. It has received great reviews and I believe a signed copy can be obtained from his website at 'johnkaypoet.co.uk' Kay has most recently been published in A Million Ways: The LOST/FOUND Issue and also been involved with a number of other publications; these include Poet in Profile, South 35, 2007, Interpreter’s House, South, Doors, Poetry File and his local newspaper, the Bournemouth Daily Echo. His first collection of verse, 'It Wouldn't Do' was published in 2008. His most recent collection 'She stole my northern heart' was published in 2019 by A Million Ways.
