Sir Rhymesalot Author

Simon Mills, better known as Sir Rhymesalot, is an Australian songwriting anomaly with a bohemian poet come pirate persona. This relentless-rhymer's books are as multidimensional as the renaissance polymath himself. Mills is a gregarious, larger-than-life author who masterfully communicates on multiple levels. Courageously comedic and then soulful when you least expect it, his stories entertain the parent reader on one level and the youngster on another alliterative plane. You will meet Violet the Virus who longingly loves people but has no idea she is harmful. You will meander through Venice with Phony Pigeoni, the Italian consigliere whose fanciful-fairytales prove too much for his fellow feathered friends until they discover the remarkable truth of his character. Parables that ponder themes from bullying to self-belief in I Lost My Brave, and from racial harmony, in Cyril the Squirrel to social distancing dilemmas in I Lost My Hug.He can tune a piano, perform a concerto, sing an opera, ghostwrite a biography, and run an investment bank but when he slips on his Sir Rhymesalot suit he's all about the story, the rhyme, and the rhythm.
