I have been writing for 18 years and also love reading books by John Fante,Charles Bukowski,Henry Miller,Jack Kerouac,Knut Hamsun amongst others. I enjoy writing poetry and reading others poetry,my main aim has been to publish a book of my own work as in the past i have been published in anthologies amongst other poets. My own books include, `The Awakening Soul` `Escapism` `Observations with half closed eyes` and the Anthology,`Landscape of the Dream`.. Writing is invigorating and a cathartic experience to me and hope it continues to be so for many years.
