Every writer I know has trouble writing - Joseph Heller
Creative Writing
Introduction
Here you will find some of my creative writing, mainly poetry. I enjoy writing poems that are hopefully funny and based on my experiences of being a class teacher. The first were poems I wrote as stimulus for lessons but later I began just writing for fun. Less often I write more serious poems and there are a few examples here also.
