@ForestDreaming was on this list. If you read this, Forest, get in touch and say hello? I miss your poetry and words.

Seriously, please check out their poetry. You will enrich your life and gain all manner of inspiration for your own writing.

In the rest of the world, these are just some of the poets who have inspired me: Louis MacNeice, W. B. Yeats, Rupert Brooke, e. e. cummings, Allen Ginsberg, Pablo Neruda, R. S. Thomas, Adrian Mitchell, Robert Frost, Walt Whitman, John Keats, William Wordsworth, Emily Dickinson, John Betjeman, Elizabeth Smart and Philip Larkin.

And these are some of the short story writers I love: William Trevor, Stephen King, Shirley Jackson, William Gibson, Robert Heinlein, Edgar Allan Poe, Jack London and Rudyard Kipling.

Proud and excited to see Fragments and Reflections and Family, Friends, Faith and Me at 8th and 9th respectively in the poetry hot list (6th Feb, 2015). Thank you to all those who have voted and commented.
