Unite, and various web pages, and if you are lucky enough to
be on his e-mail list, the poetry is Hot Off The Presses! Bill has
featured, performed and sometimes hosted at open mikes all over
NewEngland--including: COOL COFFEE in Biddeford, ME, Bestseller’s Cafe

R. Wayne Nickerson writes:
"I started writing short stories and poetry at Riverview Hopefield
School, A boarding school I attended from 1966-1968. I had a great
English Teacher, Mr.s Prat, who encouraged her students to read both
classics and new writers, which I still do to this day.
I also
like to encourage people to do the same. I also paint and enjoy singing.
I've been since age five and still own my first book. I started
performing mine and others' work three work three years work three years
ago. I pray I'll continue to do this for a long, long time. Viva Stone
soup, viva fellow writers, good company, good life."
