I'm known on the internet as banana_the_poet aka Michele Brenton.
I was born in Swansea, Wales and lived for 3 years on the Greek island of Kefalonia in the Ionian Sea.
I prefer to write short snappy pieces whether serious or quirky.
My main influences have been Hilaire Belloc, Spike Milligan, Ronnie Barker and Shakespeare. I have tried hard not to be influenced by Dylan Thomas as we already have far too much in common for it not to be a bit Twilight Zone-ish...
