Post graduate in biology. I am a teacher, taking private tuition. Age 45. Forced bachelor. Living with mother. Engaged in literary activities mainly in Malayalam (the language of Kerala, India; perhaps the only language name that is palindrome). Published a collection of thirty poems, Nishashalabham (The Moth), in 2008 and a work of science fiction, Mukulanam (Budding), in 2009. The next super science fiction, Craser, is completed both in Malayalam and English; about to be published. I got a state level award in 1986 for a work of poetry. Further details are given at www.johnsonpj.com.
I am a victim of the false allure of poetry.com. I was tempted to purchase a costly rubbish book containing my poem among hundreds. I was ever since searching for somebody who would expose the vanity contest. Luck favored me to get in touch with Winning Writers and thereby Wergle Flomp. Thank God and thank the organizers.
