R J GOULD

I write contemporary fiction about relationships, using a mix of humour and pathos to describe the tragi-comic life journeys of my characters. I'm currently writing a stand-alone series 'at the Dream Cafe' featuring the antics of customers in the cafe opened in the first novel of the series. If you click on Books you can read an extract from each novel.

 

I'm a member of the Society of Authors, Cambridge Writers and a rare male member of the UK Romantic Novelists’ Association. Readers tell me that my male perspective on relationships provides a refreshingly original viewpoint.

​

I have opted to be an independent author having in the past been published by Lume Books and Headline Accent.

Ahead of writing full time, I led a national educational charity, publishing in a range of newspapers and magazines, and I am the co-author of a major work 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.
