I've always been in writing - and drugs! First writing for my pharmacy college student newspaper then as head of health care communications in the UK for US ad agency BBDO /Omnicom and now as a novelist!
Born close to the remote Peak District of Derbyshire in the north of England the taste for wild country has lead me to chase erupting volcanos, helicopter up Mount Everest and to the top of the Angel Falls, white water the Grand Canyon and camel ride the Sahara. Flying aerobatic Cessnas adds to the fun not to mention driving railway engines the most recent in Cuba. And sharing our fifty foot yacht in the British Virgin Islands with a lovely wife and three daughters has topped it off beautifully.
