My story begins in 1939 (My year of birth). I spent the first ten years of my life living in Manchester because I was evacuated when war started. I then moved back to my birth town Seaford, where I spent a great deal of my life. I worked at a variety of jobs until I went to work for a plasterer, Frank Simmons. He taught me the trade and I carried this on for most of my life. After the dreaded National Service where I served in the artillery as a gunner in Germany, I returned to Seaford and started my own business plastering. I married in 1966 to my wife Angela. I bought my own house during this time and I worked for ten years in Belgium as a builder but because of their draconian tax laws returned home broke and homeless. I have now got two children and three grandchildren and live comfortably in a flat in Eastbourne. I have always wanted to write and the advent of the computer made this possible. I have finished the three books featured here and more are on the way. I write about what interests me at the time in whatever genre is needed. I belong to two writing groups as I enjoy helping others if I can. If you are interested in my work, go to my website at (franciswaitauthor) Where you can find much more information about my work.
