  <about><![CDATA[On some books I am known as George Kingsnorth.

For the past twenty-five years I have been filmmaking, initially as an editor and then ten years ago I began to direct and produce short films.

Since leaving Bournemouth &amp; Poole College of Art &amp; Design I have always been writing. Much of my more recent work has been in the form of feature length scripts, though I have also contributed to training books and was the technical editor for Regional Film &amp; Video, a UK based industry paper.

Between 2004 and 2006 I produced a HDV feature film called 'Fiddler's Walk' (See http://www.kingsnorthfilms.com). I had several other scripts that were not moving forward, so I decided to turn them into novels. 'The Fall' is the first one and I am now preparing to write a sequel called 'Illusions'.

Since 2002, I have been a lecturer in media production, first in Birmingham City University and for the past four years at the Southern Regional College based in Newry, Northern Ireland.

Please check out the first two chapters from 'The Fall' and I hope you enjoy the read.]]></about>  <influences><![CDATA[George Orwell, James Herbert, Ian Fleming, Roman Polanski, Andrei Tarkovsky, Krzysztof Kieslowski]]></influences>  <gender>male</gender>  <hometown>Aylesbury</hometown>  <born_at>06/28/1962</born_at>
