Freelance Writer and Editor honoured with mention and hosting of works at online resources and digital libraries of Universities in North America,Europe and Asia Pacific.
My association with the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign began with the vetting, examination and acceptance of my literary compositions based on quality, merit and originality by two founding academics responsible for the management of the Project Gutenberg - global archive. One was Founding Professor, the late Michael Stern Hart and his associate Dr. Gregory Newby. My works were compared to the writers who had produced works of exceptional quality and merit, released prior to 1923. In other words I was rated in relation to the authors of classics in Western literature. Project Gutenberg as a rule only accepts works prior to 1923 but in my case they made an exception based on quality, merit and originality.
I have the honour of 5 works listed and hosted by the University of Illinois based academics back in 2002. These works have been available online ever since.
The titles are:
Besides the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign(USA) hosting my works, they are also available in mirror sites in North America, Asia and Europe.
These include online resources/digital libraries at:
The University of Florida(USA)
Michigan State University(USA)
Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana(USA)
Dalhousie University(Canada)
The University of Waterloo(Canada)
Universidade do Minho(Portugal)
University of Rome(Italy)
University of Adelaide(Australia)
In addition my works are available to staff and students of UNISA(University of South Australia) and Swedish Education Network(SUNET)
I've also had my English poetry accepted and featured at BBC official sites. In my case the BBC Shropshire edition pages whereby contributors consisted of mainly native speakers and a sprinkling of foreigners.
So that allays any concerns that you have over my familiarity with the language.
It's been a long term relationship and it's going to be for the long haul!
I still keep up with language trends and evolving conventions. There are things that I agree with and things I don't. That's very much the same as anyone with opinions based on fact and a dash of personal taste.
