Fabulous secret powers were revealed to me the day I held aloft my magic sword and said "By the power of Greyskull, I am mighty!"

Bio:
Who is this Adamus person, anyway?
Adam Byrn Tritt, M.Ed., C.H., is a poet, an essayist, a screenwriter, a teacher, a shaman, a social activist, a humorist, and (according to friends) a mensch.

In his first book, Tellstones: Runic Divination in the Welsh Tradition, Tritt reconstructed a modern form of an obscure and ancient tool which, he says, is “more socially acceptable than augury with animal entrails, and quite a bit less messy.” His new book, The Phoenix and the Dragon: Poems of the Alchemical Transformation, was written as an attempt at tidiness.

Tritt—"Adamus"—is an award-winning poet whose work has appeared in a number of books and magazines you’ve never heard of, and is well known for numerous children’s works you haven’t read. He’s a frequent guest in elementary school classrooms where he can be found surrounded by children begging him to read Bud the Spud just one more time.

He was so self-conscious after his first attempt at a poetry reading that he next read his work at a clothing-optional fundraiser. (“Once you’ve read your own poetry in public, naked, you have nothing else to fear.”)

Tritt has a bunch of academic degrees, lots of initials after his name, manages to hold a responsible job teaching your children (with his clothes on), and lives in Palm Bay, Florida, with his wife, daughter, son, and a ridiculously large alligator, all under a very big tree.
