About the Author

This is me, Mike Matthews. Poet, pilot, portrait-artist and private person.  

 

A writer throughout both my professional and my private life, I started writing poetry a couple of years ago and now I can't stop. 

 

You will see that every poem goes with a picture, some taken by me and some not. Sometimes the picture sparks the poem, sometimes the other way round. 

 

Latterly, the pictures (particularly portraits) have started taking over a bit from the poems. Now, after three years and a few art courses, I am trying to put on some artistic muscle and my drawings and paintings can be seen at Pointy Pencils, which is reached via mikematthews.co.uk 

 

I hope you enjoy dipping in and out of the collections.

 

You can also see all the pictures  and some other stuff on Instagram (@thepointypoet) which will provide a feed, or course, if you follow me there. 

You can read more about me here if you like.
