Scott Elder

NEW POETRY COLLECTION AVAILABLE NOW

This is the website for the poet Scott Elder who hails from France and has a personal website HERE.  Scott studied at the American University in Paris, lived as a street musician in Paris and London, then worked as a mime artist in France and Portugal before taking monastic vows and spending twelve years in a Buddhist hermitage in France. He now lives in Auvergne with his three teenage children. 


Since 2014 his work has been published on both sides of the Atlantic, placed or commended in numerous competitions in the UK and Ireland, and shortlisted in the Bridport, Fish, Plough, Aesthetica and Troubadour Prizes. His debut pamphlet, ‘Breaking Away’, was published by Poetry Salzburg in 2015. A first collection, ‘Part of the Dark’, by Dempsey&Windle 2017 (UK), and his second, ‘My Hotel’, is due to be published in 2025 by Salmon Poetry in Ireland.


erbacce-press are proud to welcome him onboard with this beautiful collection 'Maria', which, though only 48 pages, is a perfect bound book set on slightly heavier paper than we usually use... no need for me to wax eloquent about this supremely gifted scribe; just check out what other poets have to say on the back cover of 'Maria'.


To purchase a copy click on the 'Buy now' button above the cover to open a PayPal link (£2.00 will be added to cover-price to assist with p/p) or if you wish to contact the poet direct click on the cover itself to connect via email... he's a friendly chap and would be happy to hear from you and if maybe you'd like a signed copy then just ask; we are sure he'll accomodate you.


Scott will be reading his quite exceptional poetry at various venues, some in the UK, check out his personal website for more details, visit his F/B pages or click on the cover below to email him.... he's also on twitter; @selder4321
