About TJSP

Well, now there are more than 70 of The Judy Story Poems (TJSP) written. AMASSING, because, it has now been about 9 years since the first TJSP storyish-poem was written. For “Clueless Judies” (those unfamiliar with TJSP) TJSP are a series of unusual, not-your-average storyish-poem, storyish-poems. They centre on a young person named Judy who is totally chute, quite ogreish and very much a giantess and just happens to live in an unnamed suburb of Buffalo, NY, USA. They also include some of Judy’s friends like the very wacky Frank, Glenn and Bill. They are generally, very kooky and off the wall. Two guys, one Mr. Devin Murphy and one Mr. Joel Fox where the first Judiers (writes of TJSP). The first of what was to be the beginnings of TJSP, was written in the front hall of Joel Fox’s home on Falaise Rode in Ottawa, Canada, by Devin Murphy and yup, Joel Fox. It was one entitled “My After Con Feelings, My Love” , but some of the subsequent ones have had some help from another Judier, a Mr. Curtis Murphy, brother to Devin Murphy. Judy has met many of her friends through Unitarian Universalist Youth Conferences or “Cons” for short, a happening that brings together Unitarian Universalist youth and their adult advisors. These cons are held in various Unitarian Universalist churches and they generally last for about a weekend. Her con region includes youth from all across the southern and northern parts of the USA’s NY State, as well as Ontario, Quebec and the Maritimes in Canada. In The Judy Story Poems you meet the characters slowly a bit in each instalment. Also, you get more and more confused as the series goes on. Who knows what will happen next? Well for all you Judies (fans of TJSP), maybe, the 100th The Judy Story Poem will get written…?
