John Montgomery was born and raised in South Africa, spent eight years in the U.S.A. and has lived in the U.K. since 1990. He has always had a passion for both his language and the arts, and is well known for his ability to measure and reach others. He is particularly taken with the discipline and efficiency of the structure of the sonnet, and has tended to document much of his life and his emotional experience through this preferred medium. He has chosen now to share some of these diaries in the hope that he might convey just a part of his personal journey to others.
