Profile
I am a Canadian, originally from Hamilton, Ontario. I have also lived in Toronto, the Ottawa Valley, British Columbia, and am now living in Calgary, Alberta. I have studied sciences at McMaster University and anthropology at the University of Toronto and travelled across Canada, the U.S. and briefly to Mexico and the Caribbean. I have been writing seriously for twenty years, been an active member of writers’ groups and performed my work in public numerous times, twice on radio. I have written more than 100 poems, many short stories, and am presently working on a few novels while participating in literary websites.

Writing
Popcorn Cop-porn
Turned out it was this / English guy got drunk / and started driving on / the wrong side of the road.
We Have Seen Her Dismantling
... the ugly metallic sculptures that are lurking here, you know, on every single side-street…
The Contest
“I see you think that ridicule can answer any question…”
Always Have A Back-up Planet
Everywhere it smells like burning garbage and there are only fading memories of the once teeming human millions…
Literacy
The retail and wholesale / of popular cultures: / peacock and nightingale, / enjoyed by vultures.
Back Page News
Lots of people would fight / but they held to their love, / and there’s one ray of light…
