Meet SHANE D. WILLIAMS of Redrock Writers


Shane D. Williams was born at the tender age of 0. He survived the ordeal and quickly moved onto other things… walking for example, which by the way, he still does quite well. He wrote his first poem when he was in second grade and has been writing ever since.
Shane’s specialty is writing humorous poetry for kids and adults. His poems are used in classrooms around the world in a variety of ways. His website, shanedwilliams.com is one of the most visited “poetry for kids” websites and has been featured in the Boston Globe. Shane has written three books: “The Endless Achoo”,  “All Mixed Up”, and “The Sun is on Fire” which are all available for purchase on shanedwilliams.com
Shane lives in Southern Utah where he is involved in local writing and poetry groups. He enjoys stand-up comedy, peanut butter and spending time with his wife and 3 children.
NOTHING
If I write about nothing,
then nothing is this.
But now it is something,
or it wouldn’t exist.

I was trying for nothing,
but something came out.
Still, it’s pretty much nothing
this something’s about.
