A. Gregory Frankson, also known as Ritallin, provides a poetic form of leadership within the global mental health movement - a movement that seeks improved services, greater awareness, reduced stigma and full acceptance for consumers / survivors / service users no matter where they live in the world. 

The poems in Lead on a Page tell the story of events held by the International Initiative for Mental Health Leadership and the hard road being travelled towards true acceptance for people who live with mental illness or are in recovery. Frankson's searing and incisive words are irreverent to the leaders in the movement when necessary, musical and humorous when appropriate, and always a spur for reimagining the issues through a unique and powerful prism. 

From the Prologue: 

The poetry in these pages will leave a smear on your heart. It will be up to you to decide whether to wipe it away or absorb it into your bloodstream. 

The title of this book is just a four-word statement. 

This book entitles you to join in our journey. 

The page is just a stage, and the world needs more actors. 

It’s time to lift the curtain and flood the stage with new light. 

This book is casting a call for you to act. 

The world is waiting.
