Hi Everyone! A little about myself:

I am 29 and live in a little, little town in Victoria, Australia. I am a teacher, an avid reader, obsessed Jane Austen fan and an even more obsessed Buffy fan. I collect elephants and have done since I was young. I stroll around a tennis court in Summer (you can't really call it playing, but I turn up and try). I was COERCED into joining AP by my good friend Jules, who lives in the same town as me. Her link is below, please check it out!

I have loved poetry since my teens. Can't really remember how I got into it, but it seems to come naturally when I'm feeling sad. I've been very happy lately, hence the lack of poems!

I am an English teacher, so I am lucky enought to teach poetry every year with my Year 8s (they're about 13-14 years old). I have included some of the examples I have written for them. Mostly structured poems like Haikus and Cinquains. I have also included a few that my students have written, at their request. They are fantastic and I'm very proud of my little munchkins!

So that's me. Please check out my poems, and those of my AP family, which I hope will grow by the day.
