Anthony Arsenault

My love for words became apparent to my family at a young age, when I took to reading, and always had to have a book. This love for books continued on and soon I was putting my own words to paper. I was al-ways a fan of creative writing, and often impressed my grade school teachers with my fantastic stories. At the age of 15, I wrote a poem called "Abused" for a grade 9 poetry assignment. I assure you I wasn't abused as a child, but the power of the poem brought the administration of the school to the class room with a barrage of questions. After assuring them I was taken care of, they praised my work. Four years later I entered a contest sponsored by the Canadian Chamber of Contemporary Poetry. Of thousands of contestants, I was in the top 100, and had my poem "Bob" published in their anthology “Scaling the Face of Reason". This was my first true accomplishment, and my first published work.
