Ian Buchanan


Biography

Hi
I have been writing still, for those who are still waiting for the next stage of The Jetty Journals. It's coming along, slower than it should, but nearly finished. I'm biased, but I think it will be as exciting as the first book.
I work as a technical manager for web projects, and write in bursts when I get some time.
Thanks for your feedback, and happy to hear from readers.
You can also contact me via the jetty journals website.
