Gasp! Poetry! (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The title and fearful character on the cover are meant to serve as a warning. So if you dislike poetry, you may want to go elsewhere to seek reading delight.

However, if you are open to poetry that could cause you to smile or frown or chuckle or scratch your head, you may find the 88 poems in this book to be delightful reading. The poems can be silly, serious, absurd, and they don't rhyme most of the time.

The poetical offerings span a range of topics, such as migrating unicorns, a history lesson about Ada Lovelace, a stoned philosopher, confusion over balaclava and baklava, a visit into an alien spaceship, a visit to Darwin's study, and an unusual murder in a park.

Autorenporträt

I fell under the spell of books when I was growing up and working in my grandparents' bookstore: Gingerbread Square Books in Rehoboth Beach, Delawarea small coastal town that's crowded with tourists in the summer months. When I read, I was transported to the world the book conjured.

I still feel this way. The ability of an author to pull you into his or her story is magical. When I thought of what kind of jobs I could possibly be interested in when I eventually became an adult, I wanted to be one of those people who was able to make that magic happen for readers. I still do.

Along the way, I've found the act of creating is also a kind of magic. When I write, I often fall into the story. That joy doesn't happen every time I write, and there are slow times to work through. Frustration is also a part of the process, which makes me value the days when writing clicks well.

I live in Maryland with three wonderful people: my wife Sue and our daughters Tess and Molly.
