Hi there, here are just a few facts about me.

I was born in Leicester but grew up about twenty miles from Nottingham castle.

I had a colourful childhood, climbing tree's and building dens in the woods with my friends.

One inspirational memory was watching the moon landings with my mum.

I finished college with an High National Diploma in electronic engineering and went to work as an electronics engineer.

I have worked in the Oil, rail and laser industries.

At 38 I married and after the honeymoon we had a beautiful daughter.

I then spent most of my evenings at home playing an online game on my avatar Datch. I loved to explore alien worlds and the game let free my imagination.

After fourteen years of marriage my wife sadly passed away and while getting over my loss I started writing. The first book was an autobiography for daughter and documented my life so that if anything happened to me, she would know who I really was.

I enjoyed writing so much that I decided to write a novel based on Datch. This allowed me to release my inner self and once again journey amongst the stars.

I have now have a Series of books called the Chronicles of Datch. I try to release a book a year in the series and also have a few more ideas for Novelettes that are in the works.
