Patrick Axford was born and raised in the leafy eastern suburbs of Melbourne, Australia. He is one of five siblings. He now lives with his wife and three children (and their two furry children). What began as a hobby when he was as young as eight or nine, soon became an obsession and he has been writing ever since.

The May Queen is his first published novel. When he isn’t writing, you can normally find him poring over his collection of eclectic books on such topics as the Golden Age of Piracy, Norse Mythology and his leather-bound copies of Ernest Hemingway, H.P. Lovecraft & Bram Stoker’s Dracula, to name a few. Or admiring his collection of Star Wars Lego he says is for his kids.

You can connect with him via his social channels on Facebook

One that came up so often was ‘how to establish your character’, ‘how to write a memorable character’, ‘how to write a strong hero’ or someth Read more of this blog post »
