I am here for Friends

About Me

I am 45 years old and live in England. Some of you may know me through my poetry and other writings. I have been a poet for most of my adult life, starting at 16 years of age. Currently divorcing, I have three children all grown up.I am reasonably fit for my years, although there is room for improvement( Just waiting for a grant! LOL)I have a book published called " Silly Worm and other poetic tales" and another poetry book due out this summer.Called 'A taste of Feijoa' it is the poetic story of my journey to New Zealand.
