: About Me

I have been called many things,but my friends know me as "The NightWalker". Poetry and prose has always been a part of my life. I published my first poem in the third grade.

I don't know about all of that, but I have been blessed to know some of the finest literary voices in the world. And they are all important to me.
I am the host of "Java Expressions", one of the most successful, and longest running open mic events, in the state of North Carolina. I served two years as Chairman of Membership Development for the North Carolina Poetry Society, as well conducting or assisting in various NCPS workshops.

Your essence emanating it presence, is a brilliant flare. Which illuminates ...
