I've Been Influenced By Poets As Diverse

I'm Usually Working On Eight Or 10 Things At Once.

I Keep A Guitar Around While Writing And Will Improvise Music. I Do This For Several Reasons, Such As That It's Fun, And Sometimes It Helps Me With The Meter.

I Accept Challenges, I Have Always Done That In Writing.

After I'd Produced About Two Dozen Pen And Ink Drawings, One Evening I Decided That They Needed Poems To Accompany Them. I Still Have No Idea Where That Notion Came From, But It Took Me About Two Hours To Produce Verses For These Creatures.

Writing Gives Me The Opportunity To Explore Ideas, Play With Language, Solve Problems, Use My Imagination, And Draw On My Own Childhood.
