Andy Michaelson

Andy joined the Edmonton Stroll of Poets to perform his work and is now an associate member of the League of Canadian Poets, professional member of the Canadian Authors Association, Writers Guild of Alberta, Raving Poets Society and is co-founder of Poets Ink!.

Described as a back fence philosopher, Andy states: " I want my readers to taste, touch, see, feel and hear the visions that inspire me.  During my working life , I have been a paid observer I need to put those skills to work and place the results on paper.  Like most who write often I'm driven from my bed by the visions and words playing in my mind."

Andy's poem A Child Sang was published on the Parliamentary Poet Laureate's website in November 2006
