The Ethnic religious and ‘racial’ origins of immigrants (like me) are not nearly as important to the state as their contribution to the economy, culture and society. We need workers at all levels to keep us going. Welcome them!

My advice to young writers approaching their first book is ‘tell the truth and lie about it’. Poetry however is just ‘tell the truth’

My fiction resembles representational art but only the landscape. The people however have different heads and bodies 🥹
