Where the Butterflies Rest

Bill Anderson was born in Edinburgh in 1958. His career has followed many paths, starting with languages and theology and leading into the ministry; working with addictions and residential rehabilitation for drug users and their children. He spent many years in service provision in the field of addictions including responsibilities on Governmental advisory committees and direct contact with those at the problematic side of addictions. In 2003 he left this all behind to move to Spain to adopt the more predictable, but less profitable life of teaching languages, and concentrating on his poetry and writing. He lives in the countryside near La Cala de Mijas with his wife, Vicky.
