Paul Martell
About Paul Martell:
Paul grew up in Norwich, where his family’s roots trace back several generations. He began writing as a teenager, penning lyrics for a punk rock band Commercial Object. The band used to meet in The Bell Hotel, said to date from 1485 and was one of the city’s leading coaching inns.
He has kept journals for 40+ years, and poems reveal themselves when a jotted thought from perhaps 20 years ago collides with something in the present. Recurring themes are time passing, regret, loss and death. His poems speak of fleeting moments, things seen and heard, and people who left a lasting impression.
Paul attended Wymondham College Grammar School and studied Finance & Economics at the University of East Anglia and Exeter University. After a career in banking, he returned to the University of East Anglia and completed a Creative Writing MA (Poetry). He currently lives in Oxfordshire, but retains strong emotional ties with Norwich and returns there often.
A Message From Paul:
What Did You Think of The Bell Club?
A big thank you for purchasing this book. It means a lot that you chose this book specifically from such a wide range on offer. I do hope you enjoyed it.
Book reviews are incredibly important for an author. All feedback helps them improve their writing for future projects and for developing this edition. If you are able to spare a few minutes to post a review on Amazon, that would be much appreciated.
