Released from paid employment over ten years ago by 'retirement' David got involved with his life time passion for all aspects of the theatre.

'I just love an audience!'

Acting, directing and an immersion in theatre technology led naturally to writing for the stage - several plays and a couple of awards later a play just turned into a novel as he was writing it - that's how 'The Alienation of Ludovic Weiss' came to be written.

David is also a fan of short stories - especially the work of M R James, E F Benson and Algernon Blackwood. All of which led him to produce the stories which are collected in his second publication 'His Cat and Other Strange Tales'.

David remarks 'It seems I have a natural bent for writing the macabre.'

Local Book Stores

I've been prospecting local book stores to get them to stock my books recently. It's been hard work but out of it all (and I do hate it when email enquiries are ignored) some success has emerged.

Rossiter Books who are in Monmouth, Leominster and Ross-on-Wye in Herefordahire have agreed to stock my books. Big thrill delivering the package of books.

Folks - support your local bookstore! Read more of this blog post »
