Willie Dinish Jr. is a born native of Mobile, AL. After high school, he joined the United States Air Force and served over 20 years, retiring with the rank of Technical Sergeant. During his time in the military he traveled the world and began writing to fill the hours of his travels. Thoughts is his first collection of poetry. Focusing on the deep emotional response that one feels as they explore a new relationship, it frames the moments and aspirations of hopes and desires into specific moments in time.
