== Early life and work ==
Born in Lower Hutt, New Zealand in 1940, the eldest of eight children in a working-class family, he left school at the age of fifteen. Music provided him with a youthful entry into Wellington's bohemian and intellectual scene as he played the drums in several bands including the University Jazz Club.
In his early twenties, under the influence of poet George South, Loney turned from music to poetry and started writing. His first volume of poems ''The Bare Remembrance'' was published by Caveman Press in Dunedin in 1971. After moving from Dunedin to Christchurch in 1974, he set up his own private press, Hawk Press. As well as printing the work of younger New Zealand poets, he produced a second volume of his own work, ''Dear Mondrian'', which won a New Zealand Book Award in 1976. By the time Hawk Press closed in 1983 it had published over twenty poets.
