Sean Boyd

An avid young reader, Sean got C’s in English classes until late in high school when in an attempt to push up his GPA he took 3 English classes per semester with Peter who was a Shakespeare buff. That is when his attention shifted from the story to the words. Sentences from Steinbeck, Hesse, Chekhov and others were taped to his walls, written hastily in notebooks, revered. Some of the classes were in poetry and the freedom from prose opened new doors. Whether free verse or any of the known forms, poetry was fertile landscape to sow a love of words. Over the years the notebooks piled up with exercises in form, content, foreshadowing, and dialogue, until short stories and poetry started to fill notebooks as Sean's focus grew.

Now having written a few books Sean continues learning and exploring through his love of words.
