David S. Pointer has proven, if anything, to be a versatile writer. Save the humdrum of traditional poets for aging spinsters, David takes his literary talent in Sinister Splashplay and introduces to the reader a realm of written work, all individual, self-sufficient poems, that create a body of work suffice to say a vision rent with vivid and creative images, steampunk and science fiction and rock and roll entering the realms of poetry as only one with talents as Mr. Pointer can; a tip of the hat to genre writing with a quasi-sophistication for those who peer between the covers. A certain fact is David S. Pointer is going places, whether here or there, in name or body, and we are pleased to share this brief glimpse into the greater garden hidden behind the gates of his mind.

David Stimson grew up on Cape Cod, Massachusetts, and learned boatbuilding while working in the local boatyards. During this time, he developed an eye for boat design from Merton Long, a retired catboat builder who became his friend and mentor.

They studied the population biology, territorial behaviour, habitats and environment of red grouse and ptarmigan in Scotland.
