Some of his favourite authors are Richard Overy, Bernard Lewis and John Toland. Now retired he writes and edits. He lives in Israel with his wife of 44 years.

Smashwords Interview

How do you discover the ebooks you read?

From lists sent to me by the various e-book retailers and recommendations from friends. I also look for e-books relevant to research for my writing.

When you're not writing, how do you spend your time?

I have always loved reading. I am never more happy than when I'm with my little granddaughter, who inspired one of my favourite stories in my book, 'Just for Fun'. I also like watching cooking shows on TV and fancy myself a fairly good cook - I'm always ready to try a new recipe I've seen on TV. I love art, painting, drawing or just making something colourful. I joined a ceramics workshop and make ornamental ceramic figures and objects useful in the home like lasagna dishes and pots for my wife's plants.

'Just for Fun' is an anthology of short stories, some fiction, some faction, some autobiographical, but always interesting. The book is a mix of humour, pathos and a little bathos. The author called the book “Just for Fun’ for two reasons. Firstly because that is the lead story and secondly because writing is fun—lots of fun and hopes that the reader has fun reading the book.
