Annie is a lassie from Lancashire, at heart, but a traveler, too, who enjoys people as well as places. She writes (poems – as you can see), paints (acrylics), draws (chalk pastels) and collages. Not a singer (no Gracie), but a writer of Songs (at Midnight). And for fun and charity, she may drop in on you, abseiling from height.

Ian is a Londoner by birth, who has spent most of his life either getting to know the place or getting away from it. He now lives in Perth, Western Australia, which is about as far away as you can get, but he returns to the United Kingdom regularly for a fix of his English/Scottish/Welsh heritage.

aaeiinnn is Annie and Ian’s shared persona. She/he has no being except in these pages; no gender; no place. He/she is a virtual being, borne of the internet. Like all complex constructs, the outcome could not have been predicted from the components. The whole is truly more than the sum of the parts.

Ian’s photographs, and many more besides, are available at A Rhymer’s View of the World.
