"Paul Richmond is a storyteller. He uses poetic verse to tell stories of how life is lived. He is a satirist of the highest order. His prose/poetry will make you laugh, make you cry and make you see and know the truth. The late George Carlin would easily identify with Paul's work and style. He has the uncanny ability to take the simple things in life and make you see the depth of what they mean. He is a master of personification. His characters of Courage and Confidence or Beauty and Ugly make for exciting reading." Abiodun Oyewole
