About Londis Carpenter
Who in the world is Londis Carpenter?
Londis Carpenter is a published author of poetry and prose. His first book Sketches From Life recieved a five star rating from Midwest Book Review.
Carpenter's story poems seem to create word snapshots that give us glimpses into his humorous and sometimes unique view of the world.
Sometimes these glimpses are written in a style that makes us feel they are actually coming from a child's point of view, earning him a reputation as "the grandfather who never grew up." This also makes his poems excellent material for reading aloud to children. Because of his universal appeal, childrens and adults alike have taken pleasure in discovering and reading the clever wit and insight found in the poems of this important author of the new millennium.
Carpenter began his writing career late in life, after age sixty, at the request of friends and family who wanted his works put into written form. His first books were all self published and lacked diciplined editing because they were practically rushed into print.
