Meet the Creator of
Prompts Gone Wild
Aaron Barry
Looks-wise, Aaron Barry is a 6 at best, but as a writer, he's easily a 10. After years of training, he was finally able to reach a level of sarcasm hitherto unknown, and he now applies this to every form he touches, including free verse, haiku, short stories, articles, and books.
He could sit here and brag about how his work has been featured in nearly 100 literary magazines, how his haiku collection earned him an Honourable Mention in the 2023 Haiku Society of America Book Awards, and all that, but he would never do such a thing.
He lives in Port Moody, BC, Canada, but says Vancouver because it makes him sound fancy. Feel free to reach out to him directly at aaronteacher1@gmail.com or through the PGW Gmail account.
eggplants & teardrops: a haiku collection
By Aaron Barry
eggplants & teardrops: a haiku collection takes haiku into the 2020s, radically updating classic haiku conventions from the days of poetry greats like Matsuo Bashō and touching on contemporary subjects never before seen in the form.
Many of the poems in this collection have been featured across English-language haiku's most respected magazines, and now they've been artfully arranged for the first time and accompanied by thirty bold line art illustrations.
