About the poet:

Raphoe-based writer, Liam Porter, rediscovered his love for creative writing and the power of poetry when he challenged himself to post a poem on his blog every single day in 2013.

Since then, his poems have inspired, motivated and encouraged around the world. Thanks to Jason Black, he even has a poem now on the summit of K2.

Liam’s poetry collection ‘Dance in the Rain’ was published in 2015 and he continues to write regularly on his blog – liamportermedia.wordpress.com
