James Corley

My career started as long ago as the 1970s writing stories for British 'New Wave' science fiction magazines. I wrote plenty of profound and literary articles and pontifical reviews, but when it came to writing full-length science fiction I found the books came out tongue in cheek, satirical, jokey, low-brow romps. No excuses, no apologies, but writing 60 to 80 thousand words or more is Hard Work, the pay is mostly Not Good, so you may as well Have Fun.

My recent work has mostly been non-fiction, Crime (stories, not actual bank jobs), and Historical - all under non-de-plumes in case anyone should think I'm getting serious.
