edit data

For many years I have been a regular author of non-fiction with a leading UK publisher. My books largely focus on national and local English history.

Then in 2023, I got signed for my first fiction – epic fantasy! This may seem an odd crossover, but my fantasy world of Thera bears many similarities to our world during British Regency times and Roman empire times – two cultures that are destined to clash with brutal consequences!

I am also a multi-disciplined musician and songwriter (check out YouTube link below).
