When I was around twelve years old, I decided to share some important information with my father: I knew what I wanted to do when I grew up. 'I'm going to be a writer!', I told him. He thought for a moment before replying: 'Don't be an idiot, boy. You'll be needing a proper job.'

And he was of course entirely right. I did need a proper job. Or several of them, because I never did find a career that fully engaged my attention. But all the time, I secretly still wanted to be a writer. I was lucky - I was able to find writing jobs with magazines at first and later with web-sites and they kept me happy when most of my proper jobs simply made me tired.

Now, I'm even more lucky. My two children have finished University and are becoming frighteningly grown-up. My wife (who, unlike my father, has always supported my desire to write) and I have been able to spend several years travelling the world and living and working in some delightful places including Vietnam, Thailand, Myanmar and Italy before settling in Spain.

And now, finally, I can develop the career I always wanted - as a writer. I write blogs and articles for websites, I have clients for whom I write and edit in places as different as Vietnam and Australia and I finally have the chance to write book length fiction and non-fiction.
