About the Poet, Dominic Campbell

"I was born in Newcastle-upon-Tyne and I am very proud of my North East roots. I come from a background of descendants of miners and soldiers.My Grandfather was very military and he was originally a serving member of the Northumberland Fusiliers until he eventually transferred in to the Royal Marines. Unfortunately it wasn't the life for me even though I enlisted in to the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers and then the Royal Artillery.
Strangely, I have never considered myself as a poetry reader or writer but after toying around with some stories I eventually wrote 'Lost in Paradise' which is now sitting on a shelf dusting away, never published. I began to write poetry in that story, describing the way a young man felt about an island he was stranded on. Then I went on to a poetry site and added the poems. I never thought I would ever receive any feedback but I was proved wrong. The response was enormous and the more I wrote the more people were enjoying my work. My published book A Picture of Auschwitz came about due to recurring dreams about a movie entitled 'Exodus'. I was only a lad of 11 or 12 and the scenes depicted within the movie were so harrowing and horrific for a lad of that age. I began to write about scenes that I had dreamed of, putting myself into the piece of poetry. The first and original poem was A Picture of Auschwitz, which received so many responses, I couldn't count them all. - Words of Dominic Campbell
