Trevor Landers is the Managing Editor of The Zealot Press and his poetry had been published by a number of international journals. By day, he works for the Tertiary Education Commission in New Plymouth, monitoring and managing tertiary education. Trevor has been writing poetry since coaxed to do so by a primary school teacher and he says he finds it both cathartic and an extension of himself. Earlier this year he published his latest volume of poetry, entitled ‘To Romania, with love’ in conjunction with Romanian poet Cristina Galeata. In 2004, he has other volumes being prepared for publication, including ‘Eastbourne Songs’ and ‘ O Finlandia’. These poems are from the Eastbourne Songs collection. His poetry has been published widely in his native New Zealand, and also in a host of international journals.
