Warrick Wynne’s Poetry Pages


Welcome

I am a teacher and writer based in Melbourne, Australia, with three published books. My poetry often centres around landscape and the natural world, particularly the coastal zone and the rivers and streams. I’ve lived on the Mornington Peninsula south of Melbourne for many years and the Port Phillip Bay and Western Port Bay seascapes appear often in my work.

I the winner of the Red Earth Poetry Prize in 1992, the Max Harris Poetry Prize in 2003 and have been commended in several other competitions. In 2000 I was awarded an Australia Council Overseas Residency and spent time at the Tyrone Guthrie Centre in Ireland completing my third collection. My Ireland 2000 site discusses that experience.

This site was set up in December 2007  an experiment is using wordpress to host the web site. The original web site is at warrickwynne.org.
