Biography
I have been a writer for a touch over 30 years, largely busy writing articles for magazines - well, one magazine "What Satellite" - and otherwise struggling with numerous scripts and other bits and pieces.
Lately that has meant producing a newsletter and other small written pieces which have faded into obscurity almost as quickly as they have parted with my computer into the great internet yonder...
Born and still living in the same area, I have long had a fascination and pre-occupation with fantasy, sci-fi and crime fiction - with a more recent attraction toward horror (lighter horror that is). Lately I have been drawn to novels involving Vampires and ghosts too.
The more I have written the less I understand about the whole precess and the harder it seems to become. Over the years I have slowed down, writing less with far greater attention than once was the case. I would hope this means the work is of higher quality, but dyslexia and distraction being what they are, I am not sure that is true. It remains an aspiration however...
Where this might lead, and what it means for the future I have not the least idea. But it will be an interesting journey.
