Vincent John "VJ" Ancona has been writing ever since he could pick up a pencil. At the age of 13, he had his first poem published. It was in that moment Vince realized that writing poetry was his calling. Vince was drawn to the confessional style of poetry in the vein of such famous writers as Sylvia Plath and Robert Lowell.
For Vincent, the key to good poetry is not Rhyme Scheme or Iambic Pentameter, he believes in creative expression through sincerity and honesty. This collection of unembarrassed poems chronicles his life experiences and razor sharp insight of the world around him. Vincent's poetry has been hailed by critics nationwide and has been published in various books, and featured on several CD's. VJ has completed poetry projects for various writers, models, fashion designers, photographers and celebrities. This is his first book of published poetry.
