Preston LeCaine
Poet, Musician and Performance Artist

Preston has been writing for eighteen years and his free-style poetry echoes those personal feelings that reflect his life to his sociological experiences. He has come to understand that with poetry you can have people's thoughts change their own lives. He writes what he feels from the heart and also loves to use intellectual conjecture to amuse the judgment of audiences.

Preston has read his poetry at many events throughout Saskatchewan from the first Crow Hop Café in Regina to his first reading at the Wood Mountain Cowboy Poetry Gathering at the age of 13. He's read his poetry at the "Red City" Poetry event in Winnipeg in a 2003 broadcast live via internet to Harvard Law School students and to incarcerated youth at Paul Do-Jack Youth Centre in Regina.

Preston has studied the academic side of poetry and has been influenced by poets such as E.B. Browning, Robert Frost, Edgar Allan Poe as well as being influenced by First Nations poets such as Joseph Brant, Neil McLeod, Bob Boyer and Randy Lundy. He is presently working on a poet autobiography from the last eighteen years of written works.

Preston won the 2004 Editors Choice Award for new poets at the International Library of Poets, and has been a member of the Survivors Writers Group since 2001.
