native of Columbia, Tennessee, I now live in Wilmington, North Carolina. I have spent over thirty years in controls engineering and automation programming, but I am also a writer, artist, and photographer. Since 2009, I have been writing Japanese short-form poetry with a primary interest in haiga -- a combination of image and poem where one compliments the other. My artwork is inspired by Japanese woodblocks and ink painting (sumi-e).

My work has appeared at Contemporary Haibun Online, Frogpond, Cattails, Haibun Today, Haigaonline, World Haiku Association, and other online and print journals. I am also the editor of the book "Life's Journey, Collected Essays and Poems" by George W. Jones.

It is my hope that through combining words and images you will find something for contemplation and reflection.

My ongoing work can be found at my blog Some Tomorrow’s Morning, www.danhardison.blogspot.com.
