Derek Pickett Interview
Derek Pickett was born and raised in a small village in the South East of England. He took an interest in poetry from a young age and was inspired by the great poets of the U.K. and Ireland, including Wordsworth, Heaney and Burns. Derek has travelled extensively in the USA and at one time or another has lived in Arizona, California, Hawaii and New York, as well as Mexico City and São Paulo, Brazil. These days, he lays down his hat in Houston, Texas, where he finds daily inspiration for his work in the multicultural world of the city, and his lifelong love of music, and passion for country dancing.
Like many authors, they are motivated by an idea, a thought, something that inspires them to create their book. In this episode of the Indie Beacon Show, hostess Mary Ann Faremouth talks with Derek Pickett about his love of dancing and poetry and how they inspired him to write his book of poetry in Lost in the Dance.
