February 12 – Hide and Seek
A children’s game
Complicated by adults
Counting to ten before choosing
To reveal or conceal
Secrets and lies
Hopes and dreams
Sometimes hiding from without
Sometimes seeking from within
An adult’s game
Simplified by children
Running “Home” to safety

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.
