Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
Listed in Marquis Who’s Who in America, Arts & Literature, 2005-2010 on the strength of one book, ODE TO MADONNA and Other Poems,1991, and minor work in the Arts. As reference; Jimmy Kimmel nor Sarah Silverman are listed. Reason met enlightenment as an atheist turns to spirituality resulting in two books.
Studying creative writing, newsgathering, acting, and philosophy at the University of Nevada Las Vegas, the once reluctant poet Alan Paine went on to produce for the stage, radio, and cable TV working in the arts now for over 40 years.
After writing poems that earned publication and several awards in 1990, he published his first collection of poetry; “ODE TO MADONNA and Other Poems.” The Marquis came calling in 2005 and spiritual enlightenment came once again in 2013.
Along with evolutionary revelations herein inspired by the divine feminine, a second collection of poetry completes the destruction of a decaying paradigm; “Crumbling Sandcastle Designs; Return of the Goddess.”
Now on a spiritual journey through the heart of humanity, it appears destiny taps a once reluctant poet and atheist to bring objectivists into spirituality and perhaps beyond.
