This, Johns fifth book of poetry, is an indication of what happens when a writer is passionate and dedicated to his craft.

I work myself too hard sometimes he says, I work through the night when the Muse is about (!) and read voraciously. I can spend days agonizing over apparently trivial words, but it has to be right John travels regularly to family in South Africa, Germany,...

John here distils his own idiosyncratic sense of the word and the world he finds himself in.

Such is my dedication that I work through the night most nights. I greet the dawn in my small study and long for the day when Writers Blo...

This volume shows the therapeutic and cathartic value of the act of writing in overcoming such problems. This is a good example of attention to the daily habit of creativity. John, in this volume, clearly demonstrates how writing has transformed a series of major personal problems into opportunitiesabove all, the opportunity to transfor...
