About the author
Rick Duncan is a poet, musician, songwriter, arranger, and parody writer. Many of the poems featured in LOPSIDED LAUGHS are an offshoot of his songs. He has written over 300 original songs, 300 poems, and 1,100 parodies, mostly in a humorous or sarcastic vein. With his poetry, Rick Duncan expresses unique views about many aspects of our experience, including the romantic, wry, embarrassing, silly, and poignant. Rick specializes in experimenting with rhyme, meter, and wordplay. See www.Duncansong.com. Tina Glasner, an editor, writer, and graphic designer, extends the poem concepts, portraying situations never seen in real life. Readers have confirmed that the drawings complement the fun and impact of each poem. She has created cartoons, logos, and portraits; designed and produced books; edited everything from manuscripts to technical documentation, and published over 50 nonfiction articles. See www.DreadedMomLady.com. Rick and Tina met in September 2008 in San Jose CA and then discovered they had attended the same Los Angeles area high school at the same time, Canoga Park High, in the early 70s. Since then, they've discovered other “near miss” connections in people they each know, proving it is indeed a strange and small world.
