somewhere-else-writers.org Dave Walklett Dave Walklett


Two very different poems by writer Dave Walklett are featured this month. Dave is a former Drama teacher and Director of Expressive Arts at a Swindon school, retired and resident in Cirencester with his family since 2015. He now works, occasionally, as a relief Library Assistant, mostly in Fairford and Cirencester libraries.


He is currently studying for a Masters Degree in Cre- ative Writing with the Open University, and most of his creative energy is dedicated to that. He has written poetry, short stories and the book for a musical based on ‘Alice in Wonderland’. At the moment, he is writing a novel centred on the activities of an Amateur Dra- matic Society: something of which he has a great deal of experience. When not writing, he likes to listen to Rock Music and play along on his guitar.


His daughter says he’s an ‘old hippy’. Dave’s work can be read at cirenscene.com.
