My name is Philip Dodd. I was born in 1952, live in Liverpool, England, and I have been writing songs, stories and poems since I was twelve. I am the author of three books, Angel War, Klubbe the Turkle and the Golden Star Coracle, and Still the Dawn: Poems and Ballads. My poems have been published in poetry anthologies and a poetry magazine called The Dawntreader. Having put my stories and poems to the test, I decided to put some of my songs to the test by entering them into the U.K. Songwriting Contest, 2017.
