| Life Story: | An ex fitter& turner turned writer, poet, artist and teaching assistant. I spent nearly 30 years in NZ and Australia working in my trade and then as an ageing student at Auckland University where I studied English from Old English to 20th C poets. Since my return to UK I have written books, poems and short stories and I am involved with a local writing group. I sharpen my crayons with a proper sharpener and when I write I like to stick my tongue in the corner of my mouth. |
