“Ms. Lock’s poetry speaks primarily to the feminist in all of us, even if some are not listening yet.”  Fran Lock has been storming the London scene with her refreshing, gutsy poetry. Stunning, honest, stark, and somewhat unforgiving, Fran Lock's verse lingers in the mind and sheds new light on a modern woman's search for identity and meaning. “In a time where contemporary poetry is still seeped in traditionalism, Lock strides in and snaps open Flatrock's soul, breathes her life against paper and this is how it goes.” ~ Max Wallis Praise for Fran Lock “Fran Lock uses words as tools, or sometimes weapons, to aid her presonal journey of inner exploration: a brutal but strangely romantic journey that exults in the power of poetry to unlock imagery in minds and hearts. A fine addition to anyone's poetry collection.” ~ Joolz Denby “Fran Lock's poetry is electrifying.” ~ Paul Perry “Fran Lock is a talent to watch.” ~ Fiona Sampson “Ms. Lock’s poetry speaks primarily to the feminist in all of us, even if some are not listening yet... Flatrock is a very impressive first book by any standard. Ms. Lock fits into the mainstream of British authors who use realism (sometimes with neo-romantic flourishes) and social comment and work them hammer and tongs to create an exciting visceral experience for the reader. Ms. Lock’s wit is as sharp as her imagination, and this probably explains her success at the “open mike” readings that eventually precipitated the publication of this volume.” - Steven M Critelli, Against Interpretation Grab the debut collection from one of the UK’s most vibrant, feminist poets.

The ‘Expression of Depression’ anthologies arose from a journal and pad of art therapy drawings recorded during a stint in rehab. The idea was to collate similar pieces from as many writers as possible; the desire was to provide empathy and inspiration to anyone going through a similar experience of isolation and mental struggle. ‘All the King’s Horses’ is the third volume in a series of six and contains work contributed by Nina Antonia, Sadie Frost, Lucie Barât and Fran Lock. "...A searingly honest and inspiring testament to the fact that all art, by its very existence, is life-affirming. The impulse to create is often, in the words of Leonard Cohen, the crack that lets the light in." ~ Jillian Lauren, Author of 'Some Girls: My Life in a Harem' (Plume, April 2010)
