William James Payton

Greetings! William James Payton writes poetry and draws. He writes poems for families and children. Illustrations included in the poetry books are by the author. No AI tools are used in the illustration creations.

The drawings are simple line drawings of various objects and are all in black and white. William considers himself a "drawer," not an artist. His drawings are simplistic, light and fun; not works of art.

William has composed poems all his life. He writes when his muse strikes, prints them, 3 hole punches them, puts them in a binder. The time has come for William to share his poetry.

William was born and raised in Indiana and is growing old in Texas. He is married, disabled and retired. He has green eyes and a cowlick.

Currently, William has three books published, "Bill's Picture Book," "Verbal Soup" and "I Love the Things I Like."

More books are on the way!
