Born Melbourne, Australia. My first job was in a printing company and that is when I became addicted to ink on paper and paper cuts. After a stretch overseas I started up a graphic design studio and among my design projects were book designs. So print and books have always been, and still are, part of my life.
I first attempted writing in the early 70s with an original screenplay for a twenty-minute short feature film THE FORGOTTEN SPIRIT. It was produced and had cinema and cable TV release.
A series of articles on design followed and more on travel, which I have done widely.
GOOSE HUNT is a revised edition of my first novel SECRETSINCITY by my pen name Deray Ogden published in 2013.
SAVING SPADE is my second novel.
SERUM was released in 2020 j ...more

Saving Spade: WW1 Has Ended But the Battle to Save a Horse Has Just Begun

Creating a video trailer for my book SAVING SPADE was a challenge and I'd be interested in other's experiences.

I used iMovie on my Mac as I have had some previous experience. My budget was small and taken up with purchasing rights to use images and music.

Fascinating perspective in relation to the Vietnam war. Author, Viet Thanh Nguyen, has a gift for prose that colours the imagery of the narrative. A weight tome that needs commitment to get to the end…but worth it.
