GJ II Ashwood

GJ II Ashwood was born in a wee town (city) called Belfast, N. Ireland, in the spring of 1981. Humble & working class beginnings, a childhood with guidance and plenty of craic with his parents, siblings and extended family, much in the northern irish mindset. The ii in the authors pen name, is a subtle reference to the two try’s until successfully accomplishing a goal! Academically proficient but born with a ‘want in him’, perhaps on a spectrum before such spectrums were considered. Eventually stuck at the trade route via apprenticeship and acquired a status as an electrical technician, although the want still exists. The sponge still remains porous to wonders around. While never being a great social communicator, he has always been a deep thinker, an introvert to the extreme. Gordon II Ashwood has always had an interest in spirituality, rhyme n’ reason and now has put down on paper his tumultuous, ever-questioning nature.
