The Eccentric

By Bert Smith Jr

Funny, thoughtful, and anarchic. Bert Smith writes about everyday things and bigger societal issues with the same fearless disregard for conventional wisdom.

 

I don't know where he gets his ideas from – Bert's Mum.

 

Great fun, but I've told him to get a proper job – Bert's Dad.

 

Interview with the Author

 

Q - Do you have any unusual writing habits?

A – I write all the time. I could be sat on a train then start writing something off the top of my head, usually in the notes on my phone. I also enjoy writing in the bath.

 

Q – Where do you get your ideas from?

A – I wake up in the early hours of the morning with random ideas buzzing around in my head, so, I write them down and come back to them later. I also get ideas from conversations with friends, films, and listening to people speak in the supermarket! This book has poetry about the dark, poems about the mind, poetry about fear, a poem about second-hand clothes, oppressive wallpaper, etc… I have lots of weird and wonderful ideas.

 

Q – Why should readers give this book a try?

Because it's interesting, funny, and doesn't take itself too seriously.
