Behind the Poet

Writing has always been a hobby for John Wilkes Lincoln. However, it was not always something he thought he could make a living with. After the struggles of quarantining during COVID-19, he realized they had something valuable to share with the world and turned to writing during the majority of his free time.

Since turning his passion into a reality, John Wilkes Lincoln has written prolifically and is constantly exploring new themes, genres, and ideas. It’s incredibly hard work, but he's never happier than when he sits down at his desk putting the opening words to a new poem or story on paper.
