About this author

I was born in the summer of 1969 and live in Tollesbury, England. I wrote my first novel, A Cleansing of Souls, when I was twenty two years old and published my second novel, Tollesbury Time Forever in January 2012.

I am in the process of writing my third novel which I intend to finish by the end of the summer 2012.Please do get in touch if you would like to discuss anything about my novels or if I can be of any help at all!
