Richard Guise

Richard Guise is determined to find something he's not totally hopeless at before he joins the choir invisible.

> School teacher: no discipline

> Salesman: too nice

> Van driver: one burnt out, one stolen

> Revolutionary (as Colin Costa*): no one listened

> Crime writer (as George Quin): all good characters dead

> Travel writer: exhausted

* An anagram

Somehow he's sold over 13,000 books – probably through some kind of ordering error.

His best-seller is 'From the Mull to the Cape' (2008).

His latest is a third edition of the popular memoir 'Lead Us Not Into Trent Station' (2025), including five brand new chapters covering further episodes of confusion and chaos since the turn of the millennium.

Richard's 'Old Geezer's Dictionary of Irritants' includes the following entry

travel expenses welcome.

Richard Guise also writes under the names George Quin (fiction) and Colin Costa (political polemics).
