D.W. Curry

Hi, I'm Derek. Thank you for your interest in my writing.

I was born in Sussex in the UK and I’ve lived in London, in two parts of Kent, in Scotland and in Suffolk. Most of my working life has been in commerce, which I didn’t enjoy much, but the final five years was spent as a civilian police employee, which was great.

My wife and I now live in the Suffolk village which has been our home for nearly fifty years. We have two grown-up daughters and six delightful grandchildren.

I have always loved reading books so I suppose all those words taken in have had to come out somehow.

Aside from my first novel: Running Indoors, my literary background has generally been in the field of short stories, where I have had success with twist-in-the-tail pieces for magazines and writing competitions. Watch out for these and more in my next book.

Thanks again for checking me out. With luck, perhaps we’ll meet one day.
