Q&A
When did you start writing poetry and what has kept you writing as an adult?
I used to write poetry as a boy – infrequently and rather badly. I started writing poems about gardens for a one-man show back in the 1990s and a couple of years ago I worked with the composer Debbie Wiseman on , an album of rather grew out of that. I enjoy writing poetry and, while I make no extravagant literary claims for my work, I hope they amuse (some of them are meant to be funny) and perhaps make people think a bit more about plants and gardens and the importance of nature.
