Provoking, Original, Lyrical, To-the-Point PoetryImaginative Spasms is the eighth collection by Canadian poet, Scott Alderson. A university degree in English not required to understand the words and meanings behind these poems. Seven previously published chapbooks and full-size collections plus new pieces put forth through social media comprise the body of Imaginative Spasms. The books contained in this work span from 1994 to 2005. Also included are new pieces from 2015 to 2017. Scott Alderson Poetry has appealed to people from all walks of life, even some who claimed to dislike poetry initially! Previous publications were marketed using unorthodox methods such as door-to-door sales as well as direct sales through busking at street level in downtown Calgary, Alberta, Canada.The title Imaginative Spasms was chosen over others as the author was diagnosed in 2012 with primary progressive multiple sclerosis. Now it's your turn to ride the emotional roller coaster of postmodern poetry. All aboard!

Autorenporträt
Scott Alderson was born in 1964 in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. He started his writing career in 1983 as songs to be performed by a band. In 1994, he began self-publishing chapbooks and full-size collections. In 2001, he registered the trade name, Three Small White Publications. Copies of two of his books, Another Flush and The Happy Medium, are in various libraries throughout the world. Scott also starred in a DVD video called "Three and a Half Poets Stir the Soul of Cowtown" in 2008 (Sweetgrass Films, producer). In 2012, he was diagnosed with primary progressive multiple sclerosis, and less than a year later, he was in a wheelchair. After three years of getting used to life in the chair, he began writing again. In 2016, he presented two workshops called "Busker Poetry" and "Promoting Your Poetry" at the annual "When Words Collide" convention. His slogan for facing life and changes to it is ADAPT or DIE.
