I am a Brummie living in Northampton who loves to write but gets distracted with other things. I enjoy horror/fantasy and anything that provokes original thought.

My literary heroes are Clive Barker, Stephen King, Edgar Allan Poe and HP Lovecraft. Everyone should read George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-four .

I have work published by AlienBuddha Press, Loft Books, BlackBough Poems, DarkWinter Literary Magazine and Paragraph Planet.

Any poem with rain in it is good by me. October does end damp, after all. A super poem, of course.

A touching tribute, Jenny. I don't think it gets any tougher than losing a parent(s). I love that last paragraph/stanza, in particular. Paul x
