Biography

I live in Nelspruit, in the province of Mpumalanga, South Africa. Nelspruit is around a 3.5 hour drive from Johannesburg and only an hour’s drive from the Kruger National Park. Nelspruit also hosted several of the World Cup Football matches during 2010.
I worked in adverting for over 35 years as a creative director, art director, copywriter graphic designer as well as a TV and radio producer.
I have self-published three books. Two books satirized a section of South African Jewry (Unreal Humour of the Kugel & Bagel or Are Kugel’s children born with Design Genes? and Kugel Kids – The Outstanding Tagel Handbook). The third is a dictionary of collective nouns (Alan Levine’s Serendipity of Collective Nouns – Creatures Big & Small. It is the biggest and most comprehensive book on animal collective nouns). I am looking at putting it on as an ebook during the coming year.
I am also in the throes of adding - and writing more - titles to ebook.If you are interested in the English language I suggest you go to my blog - Only 26 Words. It can be found at alsolevine.blogspot.com
