Born in Blackpool in 1957 I was the middle child from a family of five children. Three brothers and one sister. My Father was from a boxing Family of three brothers, who held good boxing belts in their younger youth within the UK. My father wanted one of his sons to follow in his footsteps. After leaving school, my first job was as a Perspex fabricator for a top sign making company, but my dream from being a young child was to join the army and wear a big black hat...! As soon as I reached the age of 18, I enlisted. I'd joined the Household Division and became attached to the 2nd Battalion Scots Guards. visiting other countries like Germany, Belgium, France, Cyprus, Canada, Northern Ireland and the UK. Public duties was a big part of my life being in a Guards Regiment. with duties at Buckingham palace, St James Palace, The Tower of London and Windsor Castle. plus many other duties, ie; street lining for funerals, Guard of honour for State visits and to top everything... Creme de la creme... Trooping the colour for her Majesty the Queen. I held the rank of 'acting WO2' when I left the forces. In 2003 I moved to live in Tenerife where I started to write my first book, Book One. Duncan. Whilst working on the movies Wrath of the Titans and Fast and Furious 6. Now back living in England, I've polished off my book and hope that those of you who read it tell others. Book Two. Ghoshian is already in progress and should be out in the new year, followed by Book Three. Skeryd later next year.
