I used to write poetry as a child and loved English at school. As I grew older I played guitar and wrote songs and used to throw my ideas in notebooks and write long letters to people, usually without sending them.

I took up writing poetry again around five years ago in Allpoetry and was recently asked to teach it. I've had two poems published in books and am waiting for three more to added to their number in various books.
I study Theology and one of my essays is published in the Religious Tolerance website.

Apart from writing I love to ride my motorbike, listen to music, go for walks in the countryside and play games.

In future I plan to do some gardening, improve my health with herbs, write a fantasy novel and ride my motorbike some more.
