About Me

I assemble junk poems and take photos of your dreams.

I tweet as @badbadpoet.

I am a member of Jeff Noon's experimental Twitter writing group, @echovirus12 and founder of my own, @chimeragroup0.

Thirteen is my lucky number.

Why do you write?

I write because I never grew up. And I don't intend to.

Any favorite authors? Books?

Some authors I admire are Alain Robbe-Grillet, Paul Auster, Franz Kafka, Henri Michaux, Allen Ginsberg, Paul Nougé, Marguerite Duras, Joyce Mansour, Samuel Beckett, Margaret Atwood and Octavio Paz.

I'm fascinated by the effects created when words and pictures are juxtaposed or combined. Consequently, favourite books include A Humument by Tom Phillips, From the Strongholds of Sleep by Jindřich Heisler and Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak.
