Lets just say my path in life crossed with those involved in the aftermath of the Brinks Mat robbery and Asil Nadir fleeing the UK, I am good friend with the pilot who flew Asil Nadir out of the UK..........the real pilot , not Peter Diamond who was the scape goat.

I just love doing it, I could write full time if I could. I went to over 22 different schools as my father was a criminal and I was in childcare a lot, I was moved all over the UK. As a result my English and Maths is very poor, my teachers at school laughed when I said I wanted to be a writer, they said it would never happen............well weren't they wrong!

Gold Bars & Jaguars is my next book due out in 2016, it is a British gangster story with a romantic twist, the story is based around two true events , the Brinks Mat bullion robbery and Asil Nadir fleeing the UK from Compton Abbas airfield in Dorset. It is the story about the son of one of the bank robbers and his quest to keep on the straight and narrow despite being pursued by a curse, the criminal underworld, and the police. The is a FB page called Gold Bars & Jaguars, it is also in script format and I am currently trying to get it into a film.

since I started writing the biggest mistakes made have been sacrificing my story and changing it to what the publisher wants in order to get a publishing deal! These days I would sooner self publish and write what I want to write. Editing is another big issue, I can have the same book edited by five different proof readers and all will do it differently! It is nice to be a published author, but it is not the be all and end all of it, write what you want , do it your way, and just do it!

Getting rid of some of those stories that are piled up in my head, my brain is like a library every time I write a book it is like it is then taken out and a space made for a new one.

I don't suffer from it, I get the idea of a story in my head and just write it from beginning to end.
