BIO
For Andrew, poetry is a means of expression from the heart. His original style of combining poetic passages with free flowing prose has been developed purely as a means of giving a little of himself to words – and always with some hope of making a difference.
By utilizing his observations on life, he presents a perspective of everyday living to which we can all relate.
As well as poetry and prose, Andrew is also an accomplished Ghost Writer, having worked with a number individuals covering a range of works, from memoirs and biographies to short stories and novels.
Andrew is also happy to take on freelance assignments and has from time to time accepted commissions for personalised poetry.
Me, My World and I
The best book since Pick-Up Lines for Pensioners.
(Miss Betty Jones)
You just have to buy this book!
(Miss Galena Sublime)
You have no idea what it's like sitting on a shelf in the poetry section of a bookshop. Have you ever noticed how literature designated as intellectual is always hidden like some top-shelf publication in a sweet shop? I get so lonely down there in all that prehistoric dust. Truth be told, I get picked up less than Betty Jones at number forty-seven – and she’s ninety-two!
As you might have gathered, I'm a little different – some might even say special! I'm not so much a poetry book, more a biography of everyday living. Within my pages, you will find the musings and poetry of an ordinary bloke from down your street. This is the life and times of Joe Average, a testament to life as you know it – and a vote for the real world.
You could say I'm a snapshot of real life written by a real person. If you buy me, I promise to sit on your coffee table and pretend to be intellectual … just think how much more sophisticated you will look!

Works in Progress

My return to writing after over 8 years in the wilderness has lead to a new found interest in the Japanese art of Haiku poetry. Contemplation reflects my first full collection since returning to poetry and will feature over 50 different works. The poetry will be accompanied by simple paragraphs of contemplation.

The Lion Hearts essays provided me with the opportunity to tour and to work with some extraordinarily talented writers, dancers and musicians. I have always wanted to compile these essays into a book and now finally have the opportunity to do so. Due for release before Easter 2022, the book will include all of the original essays plus some new works never before seen.

This was my main project in 2013 and was originally due for release in Christmas of that same year. Now set for release in the summer of 2022, Postcards provides a unique collection of poetry accompanied by beautiful photography and poetic pros. The pages chart my travels to 50 different locations, each described through the charm of poetry.
