About me

Gender Male
Occupation Writer
Location Baildon, West Yorkshire, United Kingdom
Introduction Right now I'm down, defeated and depressed... Been back in Yorkshire for the best part of four weeks now, looking after my wife, cooking, washing and house keeping and not doing any writing at all. It's annoying me, so reckon it's time to get started again.
Interests Family and fishing. Writing and wildlife. People and places. The past and the future... writing.
Favorite Movies Don't go much to be honest. In recent years, probably Lord of the Rings. Older? The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, Seven Samurai, It!
Favorite Music I grew up in the 'swinging sixties', so you're talking Trad Jazz, Ray Charles, The Beatles, Stones, Kinks. Later Meatloaf, Hot Chocolate, Enya. Quite liked Mika, though looks like he's a one album guy.
Favorite Books Now you're asking. Wouldn't like to say how many books I've got, but only rarely do I ever get rid of one. Even the books I don't like have a part to play in my development. Looking over at the bookshelf, there's Stephen King, Terry Pratchett, Neil Gaiman, Bernard Cornwell, Joanne Harris, Susanna Clarke. Currently reading Mo Hayder and Leslie Horton, Patrick Gale and Paulo Coelho, Penelope Lively and Hilary Mantel.

What would you wear for camouflage if you were hiding in a gingerbread house?

Why would I hide anywhere?
