"John Malone's lively and quirky imagination produces widely appealing poetry. The poems in Seeing Things are keenly observed, accessible and often humorous or whimsical. How fortunate we are that one of South Australia's most published children's poets is sharing his other poetry here in Seeing Things. Malone's subject matter is diverse, from bovine weather forecasting in the poem 'Cows in a Paddock': '… you can tell what the weather / Will be like by studying cows in a paddock'; to recalling surgery, hospital and delirium in 'The Pink Hippo': 'You wonder what will come next. You go to the toilet. You piss piranhas.' Indeed, Malone has us Seeing Things anew in this rich poetic offering." - Jude Aquilina
Autorenporträt
An avid peruser of general historical periods that he has often found most interesting, John enjoys looking into how life could have been in times the modern world often imagines about, via many media and entertainment sources. He enjoys watching many movies and shows of various genres and quality, from Gladiator (classic) to Cowboy Bebop (another classic). Also playing many real-time strategy games (often failing), and narrative intense roleplaying video games such as Pillars of Eternity, Baldur's Gate 3, and Spellforce 3 and expansions (Underrated, seriously!) He enjoys reading from time to time, despite having most of his time consumed by life nowadays. Chronicles of the Black Company series by Glen Cook, The Brimstone Angels series by Erin M. Evans, and any Warhammer 40,000 Aeldari related audio books are excellent suggestions. John lives a quiet I.T. life in Nashville when he is not writing/reading in his spare time.
