I studied History of Art, and lectured at the Central School of Art and Design in London. However, marketing was my main occupation; and in this role I have worked for a number of German, American and British companies.


Latterly, I joined the family trade development company, working principally with government departments of foreign countries. To relieve the tedium of long -haul flights and the four walls of rooms in impersonal hotels, I turned to writing.

Over time, the number of manuscripts grew, and were stored in the metaphorical
bottom drawer. The number reached the point where, in exasperation, my wife
declared I should either attempt to get them published, or she would. In fact, she
did submit the first novel; and, to date, 12 novels of mine have been published.
