Inviting the Public into your Bedroom

I kept two journals when I was younger and told myself that one was boring, although I have no confirmation of that, and the other I said was interesting, although that has never been confirmed either.

About Barry Pomeroy

I had an English teacher in high school many years ago who talked about writing as something that people do, rather than something that died with Shakespeare. I began writing soon after, maudlin poetry followed by short prose pieces, but finally, after years of academic training, I learned something about the magic of the manipulated word.
