Picture
My debut collection of prose and poetry is available in print and as an ebook.  A slim volume, it contains some previously published pieces as well as some that have not been seen before. A friend called this "a mixture of bathos and pathos in the same pieces".

what readers say

"Teen angst is so often a blight on young writers but Jamie Allen wittily plays it up and sends it up, with self-aware and groundbreaking effect." - Stan, Norwich

"‘Pictures’ is inspirational. It’s a slim volume full of short stories and poetry, speaking with a power and emotion that is moving and poignant. At the same time, it is witty and humorous, with a dash of mystery thrown in as well." - Stuart, Swindon (Read Stuart's full review here)


It's all very real, and in some cases, very funny! ... There's also a suitable mix of classic and modern references alike ... Some of the stories I thought could become screenplays - watch out for that!" - David, Milton Keynes

"Outstanding ... there are lovely moments of black humour, as well as passages of real poignancy. ... The writing itself is exceptionally strong, with moments of powerful lyricism" - Francesca, Chester
