I've been writing short fiction and poetry for over 20 years, and am now working on my second novel. By profession, I am a technical author, but outside of that I'm interested in the Arts and travel, reading, cycling and being a musician. I'm also very involved in photography. I've travelled a lot, spending nearly 18 months backpacking around Latin America. I'm currently living in the Netherlands where I am writing my second novel, a bike-based romance set in the Dutch countryside. This is about as far away as you can get from my first novel, The End: The Beginning - which is a horror story set in London, mainly in the tube. My dream is to earn enough money from writing fiction to give up my day job and concentrate on giving birth to the many worlds that infest my imagination.
