I'm originally from the Lake District, where my family still live.

Studied Graphic Design at Harrogate Art College and Middlesex University in London.

My first job took me to Trowbridge, Wiltshire where I was tasked with re-designing the local paper from a tired old broadsheet to the more modern looking tabloid it is today.

I've been here ever since and have worked for several different companies and also freelance over the years.

I have a lovely daughter Isla, who inspired me to start writing.

After receiving several poems from me, my girlfriend also told me I "need to do something with that talent", so here we are!

"The Witches' Tea Party" was my first offering into the published world, followed by "Turtle Trouble", about recycling and pollution, and my latest book "Children's Poems and Short Stories" was both written and illustrated by me!

Watch this space folks!

When I'm not writing, I love adventures in my vw campervan, mountain biking and climbing. Yes I like to keep active!

My dream would be to become a successful published author full time and give up my day job.

I also have some other crazy plans, but the world's not ready for that yet!

I hope you enjoy my books!

Happy reading folks! :-)
