I Always Knew Would Be Some Sort

I've Been Influenced By Poets As Diverse As Dylan Thomas, Lewis Carroll, And Edgar Allan Poe.

After I'd Produced About Two Dozen Pen And Ink Drawings, One Evening I Decided That They Needed Poems To Accompany Them. I Still Have No Idea Where That Notion Came From, But It Took Me About Two Hours To Produce Verses For These Creatures.

I Keep A Guitar Around While Writing And Will Improvise Music. I Do This For Several Reasons, Such As That It's Fun, And Sometimes It Helps Me With The Meter.

When I Began Writing, I Didn't Read Any Other Children's Poets... I Didn't Want To Be Influenced Until I'd Found My Own Voice. Now I Read Them All.

I'm Working Now On A Collection Of Shakespearean Sonnets, About 100 Of Them, That I May Publish If Anyone's Interested. My Take On Life Is A Little Different From The Bard's.
