Poems
and
Fiction

I've written an awful lot during my life. I wanted to be a writer from a young age. Specifically, I wanted to write the best science fiction. So I started writing. Didn't actually do as much fiction as I wanted, hardly any at all, in fact. And I've never sold a fiction story.  However, I've written a few short stories, a some of which I think might be worth a read. You'll (eventually) find them here.

Then, there is poetry. Even though I didn't like a lot of the poetry I read when I was younger, I felt compelled to put my thoughts, feelings and experiences into verse. Mainly, at first, I just used existing song lyrics; later on I started to feel and hear a rhythm.  I eventually self-published a chapbook. You'll find that here, as well as more of my versifying.
