About the Author

Deborah Alma is the Emergency Poet - the world's first and only mobile poetic first aid service. A mix of the serious, the therapeutic and the theatrical, the Emergency Poet offers consultations inside her ambulance and prescribes poems as cures. Dressed in white coat and stethoscope, she travels in her 1970s ambulance, accompanied by Nurse Verse or The Poemedic to literary and music festivals, libraries, schools, pubs, weddings and conferences ... anywhere that poetic help may be urgently required.
