William F DeVaultWilliam F. DeVault has, in his creative run (so far) amassed tens of thousands of poems (and those are just the ones that passed first reading). He has published over 20 books, received his unfair share of sobriquets, and performed his poetry all ove the continental United States, with admitted intentions of going international by 2019. He has read in churches, bars, parks, schools, libraries, and brothels. Married twice, divorced twice, but still the romantic optimist, he has fathered three children in whom he is well pleased, and mentored dozens of poets. He founded and lead the Romantic and Erotic Poetry Group for America Online, and that service's Passionate Craft poetry workshop. He was named the Romantic Poet of the Internet by Yahoo in 1996 and the US National Beat Poet Laureate by the National Beat Poetry Foundation for 2017-2018. Read More Read Less
