I began writing stories practically as soon as I could hold a pencil. I started with fiction and plays (often inspired by Dr. Who) and a series of secret agent 'novels' influenced by The Avengers and The Man from Uncle, and continued writing throughout a series of jobs before returning to university to get an MA in Linguistics and Literature. I finally got to be a professional writer, freelancing for newspapers, magazines and businesses.
I'm now a prize-winning playwright and short story writer (The Jo Cowell Award, Dark Tales, Lymm Festival, Sussex Radio Playwriting etc.), and my work has appeared in various publications on both sides of the Atlantic, including Dark Horizons, QWF, Time for Bedlam and Daily SF.
Discord's Shadow, the third novel in The Exiles of Ondd series, was nominated for a British Science Fiction Association Award in 2022.
The latest additions to my list of books are an extended digital edition of Artists & Liars, plus an illustrated paperback edition.
