ABOUT ME
One day, when I was in primary school, our form teacher asked the class to write a short story and present it the following day. So began my love of writing.
In the late 1980s my first novel, ‘The Chinook ’, was published. This was followed in the early '90s by short stories written for Write Now, a BBC regional radio programme. Another story was published by Jackie magazine. A small selection is featured in the website.
Fast forward to 2021 and Covid. I decided, during lockdown, to rewrite Chinook. I kept the original period, early 1985 and the same characters but improved the storyline. It was published as ‘Let Shadows Fall’.
The sequel, ‘8 Paraffin Alley’, picks up their lives four months later. However, their stories don't end there. I am writing the last of the trilogy. ‘Sparrows in the Rain’ is set in 1989 and brings back all the old favourites. some new ones and more suspense, danger, romance, humour and thrills.
I hope you enjoy your journey through my website and the worlds within.
