After graduating I joined the civil service. I took a severance package many years later and landed up in building management. I mostly went on motorcycle tours in Europe. I travelled to the Artic Circle three times, the fourth time I had to turn back due to an artic storm. I no longer have a motorcycle, it deteriorated before I did. My interests are cycling, photography, reading, crosswords and I have an allotment. I like to juggle all these with writing my novels. I retired early from the building management to concentrate on my writing. I tried the conventional way to get published. I will admit to getting a few rejections. The eBook route seems more democratic. My debut novel, The Puddle Dock Murders, will be published early June 2022. I have just turned 71. I have hand tremors which make typing a hoot!

I have two finished crime novels ready for the light of day. I am also halfway through a psychological thriller about revenge.
