John Eaton

John Eaton is a highly creative poet and song writer, previously a nurse and care home manager. He lives and works in Taunton, Somerset, UK. He started writing in the COVID lockdown as a means of staying sane, and keeping in touch with his granddaughter, Evaleigh. John has always had an affinity with the English language. Space and time created by the pandemic provided him with the opportunity to create. He is passionate about encouraging literacy and a love of the English language. His work is inspired by the people, punishment, pathos, and humorous proclamations encountered in his day job.

Thus far, John has also written and produced more than a dozen Spid the Spider books for children, and three accompanying albums, as well as many songs supporting the Ukrainian relief effort, including the album, Under Ukrainian Skies. The music was mostly composed by Pete Dymond, Dymond Studios.
