Introduction | John Saunders started life as a baby, which was very convenient and more comfortable for his mother. He drifted through education to become a dismal 11+ failure. Having succeeded in failing to impress the education system, John blundered through the last part of his education in a secondary school where he learned to drift off and annoy teachers. John left secondary school in 1977 with a single O level and few fluky CSE passes. John's first attempt to make money of sorts was as a screen printer. John is still involved in screen-printing (unadventurous cretin!). Whilst this nonsense has been going on in the last 30+ years; John has been making a bit of a racket on guitars and keyboards and coarse fishing (not at the same time, as fish don't like noise!). John started writing a short horror story in his CARPHEAD music Myspace blog called 'The Leviathan of Black Lake'. One day John received an email from Myspace chum named John Ellis (guitarist for The Vibrators, Peter Gabriel, Peter Hammill); in his email John Ellis wrote 'Keep the writing going!' Inspired by this email, John started writing some short stories that later developed into a novel called 'The Vernham Chronicles' |
