My name is Frank Burton, and I am an award-winning writer and performance poet.
This site features samples from my work, including the full text of the novella, About Someone– a darkly comic experimental crime novella.
The novella can also be downloaded in a variety of formats from Many Books.
The performance poetry album, Collected Words is available to buy as a CD from Lulu or CD Baby. Alternatively, you can download the album FOR FREE from Last FM.
You can listen to tracks from it on my My Space Poetry Page. The poetry section of this site contains the words to all the poems.
I was born in Lancashire in 1979, and started writing from an early age. My fiction and poetry have been published widely in the UK, Australia and USA.I am the winner of the 2003 Philip LeBrun Prize for Creative Writing. In 2008, I completed my MA in Creative Writing at the University of Chichester, which I passed with Distinction.
