I was born in Edinburgh in 1942, and mostly lived in West Lothian before settling in Dunbar in 2000.

My first poetry collection was Thirteen Ways of Looking at the Highlands (1996), followed by Seven Senses (2000). Both collections were published by diehard publishers of Callander and are now out of print. A chapbook - Mementoliths - was published in 2005. It too is out of print. A diehard paperback - Sushi & Chips - was published in 2006, containing poems written since 1999.

Mementoliths 2 is now available free to read or download as an ebook. Recycled Cards is another ebook minicollection compiled from five poetry cards published in 1998 and 1999.

I run writing workshops and lead writing groups, publish (as Calder Wood Press) and continue to write poetry, fiction, essays and articles. I used to design websites, but I don't do so much of that now. I'm still Webmaster for Poetry Scotland. Travel and photography are among my other interests.

My blog is called Sunny Dunny's (new) blog , and is regularly updated with news, journal pieces and miscellanea.

Future plans include a new collection, The Floorshow At the Mad Yak Café (Red Squirrel Scotland 2010)
