Neshaminy is published twice annually by the Doylestown Historical Society in association with the Bucks County Writers Workshop. It features history, biography, fiction, poetry, memoir, and interviews, all with a focus on the rich literary and historical traditions of Bucks County, Pennsylvania.
H. A. Callum is a poet and fiction writer calling Bucks County, Pennsylvania, his home. The rolling hills, weathered stone walls, and meandering woodland streams interspersed with quaint farm-lots serve as inspiration to his writing and to his eye as a naturalist and wildlife proponent.
Having crossed the United States several times over, and after calling the American West home for several years, Mr. Callum’s understanding of America serves as his eyepiece to a culture that is constantly changing, like the landscape that defines the continent. The ever-evolving definition of what it means to be American can be reflected in his writing and love of the written word.
Mr. Callum’s poetry and fiction have appeared in local and national literary journals. His debut literary novel, Whispers in the Alders, was published by Brown Posey Press in 2018.
When not writing, Mr. Callum can be found curled up with a good book.
Mr. Callum resides with his two daughters – his greatest sources of inspiration.
