Where am I now.

Have entered two short horror stories in the Olga Sinclair open short story competition via the Norwich Writers Circle. In Denial and The Coca Fly. Am also gearing up to enter The UK Lyrics competition for September with at least three Country and Westerns, a sad love song for a female singer and maybe a couple of other ballads.

Meanwhile I am plodding on with book 3 in the Fish Bone series, Bullington Castle, which is one full length story. Set in Cornwall the story centers around the eccentric Bullington family. The detectives are sent down there to try and find out who is trying to bump off Lord Percival Bullington. I have already written two thirds of the story along with a rough draft for the remainder with the intention of publishing it for Christmas, all being well. More on this later.

Reviews are very important for writers, they help us to hone and improve on our work while encouraging us to keep going. I would appreciate it if you can find the time to add to my reviews, on this site and or on your favorite book site, ETC. Thank you and best wishes.

Introverted as a child I would lose myself in books while dreaming of becoming an author. When asked what I wanted to be when I left school I'd inwardly scream 'An Author' Only kids from my background weren't expected- or encouraged- to harbour unrealistic asperations. I became a carpenter apprentice on £2-10 shillings a week. Later I worked in the meat industry despite trying to avoid it, but it was here that I grew up and nurtured my off the wall humour via some of the craziest characters I ever knew. I spent the last ten years of my working life lecturing, training and assessing apprentices. Many of us could be bitter that we never had the opportunities or the privilege's given to the more fortunate to touch the sky while we were still young. Personally; I prefer to ride the waves and look forwards rather than backwards and drown in regret.
