Hello!
Welcome to my website. I'm a wordsmith by profession (having had a career of some 40 years in journalism and PR) and for fun, having self-published titles in a variety of genres. On this website, you can find out all about my books, (and where to buy them, hint, hint!), a bit about me and how to contact me.
How can it be June 2025 already?
Time flies when you're having fun, apparently. I am now at least a year behind where I had hoped to be in terms of my writing, a combination of 'real life' getting in the way, and my continuing struggle with plot and strucutre, which is fuelling my imposter syndrome.
Work is plodding along (that's plodding at much the same pace as an elderly, lame, donkey) on my "magnum 'opless'", namely The Red Herring, which will be a comedy novel set in a fictional place featuring a whole new cast of characters.
I've also now created around a third of the content for my second book of silly poems too - this is writing itself mainly due to my weekly poetic contributions to my local BBC radio station. More updates to follow....
