The basis of the story I'm currently working on is my eleven years (and counting) as a police officer. As an emergency response officer, you see the darkest sides of human nature on a daily basis - and it changes you. I wanted to reflect this and give the general public an insight into this jaded perspective.

I have no idea where the ideas for my strange stories come from. There's just something not quite right inside my noggin.

My current project is my most serious yet. It's a melancholy ghost story, as told from the perspective of a dead police officer. It broaches a very serious and contentious topic, however, which is a real problem within the police, and yet is rarely spoken of.

Write on a regular basis. Write to a plan. Allow your plan to adapt. Don't expect fast results; it can take years to find your style, your confidence and your voice.

As yet, I've never had it. I've got far to much stuff to get out of my head.
