UPDATED BIOGRAPHY - May 2023
-----------------------------------------------------
I started writing poems in 2011 and find it an excellent hobby. I joined this site in 2015.
Where I live is in France, but I am English. I enjoy noticing the contrasts between the two countries in terms of sociology. There are quite a few - subtle ones for the most part.
I have (by March, 2023) set up over 100 Poetry Contests for you all.

My poetic philosophy are these -
Understatement in poetry gives the readers more to think about than overstatement.
Tell, rather than show. It's far more intellectual.
