Poetry is my first love. I write prose as well, mostly children's stories, animal stories [mostly border collies] and I also translate both poetry and prose. I wonder why there is no group for translations.
My favourite author is Thomas Hardy and my favourite poets Thomas Hardy and also Auden, Louis MacNiece and and quite a few others.

The poets that I respect and admire the most are: e.e. cummings and Amy Lowell. Another great author and main influence in not just my writing but my life is Ralph Waldo Emerson. I find that the best of my work and what's enjoyable to read is very life affirming. Poetry and most other forms of literature can be powerful, in a way just by being a creator sometimes I feel more alive because of this element in my life. I'm not famous at all, but I have the drive to at least try. My main question is what type of venue should I use to get my work out there and be sure it stays connected to my name? The only thing I can think of is to write a book...
