Ron Teachworth, a filmmaker and painter, applies his finesse to the craft of wordsmithing with subtly beautiful results. Under the surface of these stories beats the heart of a poet with deeper meanings slowly rising and rippling off on the waves. Ron's vignettes explore quiet evocations and revelations that will appeal to your senses and stir your emotions.
