Nick Flittner is an aspiring poet who has been writing for many years but has never got his act together until now.
Born in London in 1957, Nick came to Australia in 1979 on a working holiday and never quite went back.
Nick has published a collection of poems – Magnetic Island Reflections – which he wrote while living on Magnetic Island in north Queensland in 1990, and has had poems published in a variety of places, most recently as part of the Dust Poems anthology produced by the Red Room Company to celebrate trucks and poetry (2009), and in the Tasmanian farming magazine Primary Focus.
Nick is currently writing as Poet In Residence for the Tasmanian National Trust – see poetry at http://www.nationaltrusttas.org.au/poetry/pages/poet.htm
