About me

Thanks for visiting to find out more about me.

I write contemporary fiction about relationships, using a mix of humour and pathos to describe the life journeys of my characters, with an emphasis on second chances and fresh starts. Readers tell me that a male perspective on relationships provides a refreshingly original insight.

I have two stand-alone series on the go. At the Dream Cafe delves into the lives of customers at the cafe that was opened in the first novel of the series. Second Chances is just that, characters trying to restore broken friendships, relationships and marriages. Click on Books to find out more.

Ahead of writing full time I led a national educational charity and am the co-author of a text on educating able post-16 students. Although I enjoy covering educational issues, writing fiction has always been my passion.

In addition to writing and reading, I enjoy playing tennis, watching film noir, supporting my partner's glass art business - and I have a minor addiction to dried mango slices.

I live in Cambridge UK, am published by Vinci Books and I also self-publish.
