Published twice by Tincture Journal in 2013, Ron Barton is a fresh face to the Western Australian writing scene. His first collection of poetry, If God is a Poet, was released at the end of 2012 and, more recently, he has had poems published by Deakin University and displayed at the Sydney Fringe Festival and the University of Western Australia. Ron is the latest in a long line of authors who started writing while working as a school teacher. As such, he is perfectly placed to understand the minds of Young Adult readers.
