Richard's Blurbs |
About me:
Where and Who:
I live in Auckland New Zealand.
I am a poet or a "textualiser" as I call it. I have published some work in a few magazines - even in one magazine in Chicago - but I have a book called RED which can be found via the Auckland public library system.
Status Age and Children
I am 59, divorced, with three children (2 daughters, one son - he lives with me)- all grown up.
My daughters are in music group called the Nudie Suits.
Weight loss/fitness programme:
My youngest daughter is doing an MA in Psychology and I and my son are currently on a lose weight fitness jag using her experience, knowledge and guidance.
I don't drink these days.
I worked as a Lineman for what was then The NZ Post Office - now Telecom - and also I was an Engineering Tech for the NZED - that is I got involved in Communications Sytems of all kinds. But I left the Engineering area in 1988 and ran business etc and then went back to university as an adult student and did a BA in English literature. I also started writing poetry again and giving many readings in local pubs etc
Interests
Very wide - but I am not very interested in sport.
