Founder of Poetry Life & Times, now a Resident Poet and I still do the Perils of Norris 3D cartoon.

Appeared on BBC4 a couple of years ago in a 3-part documentary about romantic fiction, called "Reader I Married Him", which was produced and directed by Daisy Goodwin. This series was later repeated on BBC4.

My poems have been published in a large number of anthologies and several e-books on CD ROM, including Pinky's Little Book of Shadows and A Way With Words, published by Kedco Studios in the USA. While working on these books I learned about designing pages for e-books, with sound and animations. An article about Pinky's Little Book of Shadows appeared in the Mirror newspaper when it was first published.

I have poetry pages on AuthorsDen and Creative Thinkers International, my poems have also appeared in Sonnetto Poesia, a quarterly magazine by Richard Vallance. My sonnets have been quoted by people I have never met, variously on MySpace, also on photographer's website, and more strangely, my YouTube poetry video recital "Sales Warriors" turned up on a commercial website about the UK January Sales. I don't mind people quoting my poems as long as they credit me as being the poet.

I like drawing famous people, especially men. I was lucky enough to meet the actor Matthew Macfadyen last year, when he was appearing in the Bruce Norris play "The Pain and the Itch". I saw the play twice, with a group of other Matthew Macfadyen fans I had met online. We had fantastic days out and enjoyed the play both times. Matthew was kind and gracious, signing a lot of autographs for us. On the second occasion I was able to give him a portrait I had drawn of him in a scene from the play, with other actors around him.

I work part-time every afternoon for a local publishing company that produces industrial directories. In the mornings and evenings I am free to write, draw or go to the local gym and swimming pool.

People I would love to draw from a live sitting: Matthew Macfadyen, Noel Fielding, Alice Cooper.... they would probably distract me by chatting and not keeping still, but it would be fun. Noel Fielding is an artist himself, of a very bold graphic type, and he might consider my style old-fashioned. But he would be fun to draw.

I have twitter now, so friends on here who are interested in what I might do from day to day can catch my tweets on there. I think it's wonderful that sometimes actors from my favourite TV shows answer my replies to their tweets on twitter. See below for my twitter page link (uses my nickname pinkyandrexa)...
