About Me
About me
M.A. (Hons) in Poetry and Film
Factotum
I'm a founding member of Neopoet and passionate about the place, actually will have been here 13 years on 7th March, 2020. Having been on the web checking out poetry sites for over 25 years I have never found anything that so suits my ideals. My writing is not for publication, it is for sharing. My skills and knowledge are not for sale, they're given freely.
My favourite aphorisms-
Property is theft.
In a dog eat dog world, it is better not to be a dog.
When freedom is outlawed only the outlaw is free.
I am forever unwrapping the eternal present.
Location: Sydney, Australia, AUS
