Derek Shirley

Derek writes because it still matters. Words? There are very many of them, but some of them can still matter. He writes about what moves him - often about mind, learning, and love. He writes poetry, especially about trees, cats, and star; he writes short stories; he is writing a novel about a sentient spaceship who is also a bit of a glitchy bit of therapist. He's most active writing non fiction about education and he lives in glorious Cape Town, SA.
