John Robinson is a writer and designer living in Stockport. Born in Manchester, he spent his childhood growing up in the beautiful semi-rural village of Marple on the edges of the Peak Forest Canal. After studying graphic design at Stockport College of Technology he moved into multimedia and web design. From an early age his real passion lay in writing poetry and short stories and his work has been published in several anthologies. The natural world forms a large part of the inspiration for his poetry and a lot of the poems in Terraces & Temples were conceived while out walking on the towpaths and in the surrounding countryside of his home town. John Robinson also takes inspiration from art, photography, music and popular culture and will mine any creative pursuit to find the spark of an idea for his poetry. He is currently a self-employed web designer and lives with his wife and daughter in Marple.
