Support S F H

Every S F H song begins as a poem — written by hand, often in a small cabin with blue shutters on Waiheke Island. There's no label and no investor behind this work. Just one poet, forty years of making art, and the people who choose to walk alongside it.

If a poem or a song has stayed with you, you can help keep the work going. Every gift, large or small, goes straight to the music and the words.

The Breakfast Table

"An extraordinary and illuminating Jungian project… Stephen's nailed it. This is a considerable achievement and a rare one."
— Michael Harlow, Jungian therapist and poet; Prime Minister's Award for Literary Achievement in Poetry, 2018

Breakfast with Jung is a trilogy of poems and songs — a journey through Carl Jung's psychology, written over two years, much of it in the Poetry Cabin on Waiheke Island.

How the Chief's Table page could look in Book One.

Any seat can be taken in someone else's name — as a gift, or in memory of someone you love.

Each book also has room for one major sponsor, warmly thanked in its pages. If you or your business would like to talk about it, please get in touch.

How it works: choose your seat above and pay securely through Ko-fi. Then email hello@stephenhollins.com or message me on Ko-fi with the name exactly as it should be printed. Questions? Just email.

If a book is delayed, your seat stays reserved and I'll keep you updated by email.

My dream: to step away from the grindstone and give these poems the time they deserve. Without support, a work this size is slow and costly for a humble artist to carry alone. Every seat at the table brings that day closer.

A one-off gift of any size makes a real difference. Payments are handled safely by Ko-fi.
