European Union Prize for Literature, Goethe Prize, The Hans Christian Anderson Award, ...... these are just a few of the accolades I have never won and am never likely to....... But I'm still doing something I love.

Have been writing as a hobby since Primary school. English was about the only thing I ever excelled at and writing for me was always on the cards even if I was too lazy to sit down and do it. Only recently started making a real effort maybe in the last five years or so.

My other serious Hobbies are painting and photography.

Enjoy writing for the younger Teen Market as I still tend to think like a fourteen year old. Shame I haven't got the legs to go with the outlook anymore, but it comes to us all.

If I had the guts I'd like to be a stand up comedian.

One of the worst sins in life is to take yourself too seriously.
