My Writing Experience

I have been writing since I was a teenager and am flexible and diverse in my literary ability. I think its important to challenge oneself and try to push your boundaries.

I have won competitions and had various work published including poems, short stories, articles, quotations and a novel.

I have conducted many interviews and have been on the radio, in local and national newspapers, magazines and on television.

I have a number of projects on the go and more information will appear here in due course.

I receive emails from other writers and have had the opportunity to provide help and encouragement to new writers who are just starting out.

I have acted as an adviser, editor and critic to a few select authors to help develop their characterisation, plot outlines and provide general review.

Poems, Short Stories, Articles and Quotations

I have won a number of competitions and had poems appear in 'Poets down your way', 'Poets anthology' and others.

Other works in print, on the internet, local and national newspapers, magazines and radio.

REM

My first full length novel about a scientist who creates a machine that can really bring your dreams to life. Its an excellent story that will keep you guessing to the end and beyond!

Whilst Minerva's later reputation held back the true potential of my book it sold quite a few copies and received very favourable reviews.

It was last being proposed as an idea for a film although the demise of Minerva complicated the progress of its prospective future.

Minerva Press

Whilst Minerva had an excellent heritage, their reputation was later tainted by what is often referred to as 'vanity publishing' practices.

They subsequently went into liquidation in 2002.
