Modern Art of Convenience
The gallery’s lights
focus his attention;
precise, sharp, clear.
He glances left and right at
the great expanse of art
and views with a critical eye,
studied poise and the artist’s frames.
A tinny voice grates through
the loudspeaker,
“Can I have a price check
from fruit and veg
to register four?”
I am an English teacher and drummer/percussionist with an interest in literary pursuits, creative endeavours, rhythmic permutations, theological amplifications and comedic outbursts.
Here you will find my creative detritus: articles on living a creative life and writing explorations.
And other ideas I have snaffled from the papers stuck on the fridge door.

My collaborative epistolary novel, "Post Marked: Piper's Reach," written with Jodi Cleghorn (@JodiCleghorn) out now via Vine Leaves Press.
Come and browse through the library; there is no need to be silent.

I am a big fan of the precise, sharp and clear. I love that you do the post it notes.

It’s an interesting activity, and it keeps you thinking about line length, word choice, and word order, all the while aiming for precision.
I aim for similar in my longer works, infusing the poetic within my prose. My first novel has elements of it; not poetry, but the imagery and focus of poetry. Jodi, my collaborative writing partner for the novel, had a different style and we have infused each other’s later works. I have taken on some dialogue and action tricks while she has taken on some of my poetic devices.
