Alan J Fisher

Alan J Fisher was born in Belfast, Northern Ireland 41 years ago. Since he could talk he has had a love, a passion for words. he would argue with his mother over semantics from the age of 4; he would compose his first poems at around 8 years of age and have songs he wrote performed at school. A life long passion of writing for the sake of writing; "setting the words free" as he likes to call it!

Alan has travelled the world, living in England, Spain and both New Mexico and Georgia in the USA. "Travel broadens and improves the mind and makes it harder for bigotry to take root there". He has always been open minded and accepting of other cultures and believes this shows in his writing. He has lifelong friends across the world.

This project Alan is now releasing has been 25 years in the making! At 14 or 15 he began the early drafts in exercise books, scribbles and scrawls he typed up; first on an old mechanical typewriter his parents had, then on one of those single line screen electric typewriters which were around years ago (I think that thing is still in my parent's basement somewhere! Does anyone remember the gawd awful experience of making even ONE typo on those things??). The story has developed, grown and evolved over successive rewrites and restyles over the years and now, now finally it is ready to release into the Wild!

Fascination with history. especially the Classical period is clear too, Ancient Greece, Macedonia and Rome are all part of Alan's other great passion; that which made us, us. So, too have all the stories ever told, as they changed over time influenced us irrevokably.

All the stories are true, at least when they were first told. That single phrase and thought is what started The Chronicles of Enoch; an epic which explores the oldest and most popular stories of all and takes them to their, perhaps, logical conclusion.

The upcoming Empyraeum Cycle follows a similar path but asks; how different would our world be if one single, seemingly insignificant thing had happened differently?

Alan lives in the Spain with his wife and children who include the very recent arrivals; his absolute darling loves, twin girls Anaia and Ambar. One day he will make a true living from writing and take them travelling too!
