In short

  • I am passionate about writing and find I do it most days. I love to read too, anything from Sci Fi and Thrillers to Autobiographies and works of philosophy. I am also a keen martial artist and hold a first Dan black belt in Bushido karate.  In the evenings I sometimes Salsa dance or if I'm feeling lazy stick on a great movie.

  • I like to think I'm not seeking fame - for that brings more troubles than it's worth.

    But success if I could have that without the fame, now that's another story...
