G. Lloyd Helm
Filed under: Authors
G. Lloyd Helm is a 56-year-old philosopher and ne'er-do-well scribbler. He has been writing for thirty years and has published poetry. Two of his chapbooks are available from MousePrints Publishing. Of course there have been other things that supported his writing because, as we all know, anyone who thinks they will get rich, or even feed themselves on a regular basis with their writing is more than likely destined to disappointment. To support his writing he has held a lot of jobs, of which the most important has been house husband and father, but also including carpenter, laborer, cement finisher, taxi driver, radio disk jockey, actor, cook, teacher, and guitar bum. But chiefly he has supported himself by having married well. His wife is a retired US Air Force Master Sergeant. He has lived several spells in Europe - three years in Spain near Madrid (1977-80), four years near Frankfurt (1983-87), and three years near Venice (1993-96).
