I was born in Liverpool in 1971.
I was a slow learner in terms of reading, and didn't begin to read fiction of my own choice, until my Dad realised I was bored one day. He opened the door to my room, threw me a book (Wilbur Smith's Rage), and I was hooked.
I had always invented my own little scenario's in my head, games I would play alone, game's that only I could see. My imagination has always been very vivid, and so when I discovered books, it was unleashed. I read everything Wilbur Smith wrote, and from them, began a fascination with Africa.
Since then, I have drifted from one author to another, but of late have settled into Jo Nesbo and Conn Iggulden, both of whom are fantastic writers.
I like to think that one day I might be included in the same bracket, who knows.
Until then, I will continue to write, another late developing habit of mine.
I started in January 2011, and by June 2011 had written my first novel, The End, which is available here on Amazon. It is part one of a trilogy, with part two following middle of 2013.
I am also currently working on a separate series, aimed at the children's market. I am hopeful of finding an agent for this piece of work, so watch this space!
