Phil Church was born in Hertfordshire. He went to university in Nottingham and studied archaeology, after which he worked as a field archaeologist for three years. He has had various other jobs such as working in a bookshop and proofreading. He currently teaches secondary English near Cambridge. Thrift is his first book. It is a story about a failing teacher (hopefully not based on himself). Robbery, Murder and Cups of Tea is a crime/humour novella published in December 2013. It tells the story of a chaotic murder hunt in an English village.
