West Country author that loves the sea, outdoors, and a good thriller! I graduated from the University of Exeter in the 90s and since worked within Policing. I try to be authentic in my fiction writing, and draw inspiration from my personal experiences. It’s not always smooth sailing!

If you could travel to any fictional book world, where would you go and what would you do there?

I’ve looked through my reading list and most worlds are dangerous, violent or disease ridden places. People die! A lot! Hillary Mantel’s Wolf Hall - the loss of Cromwell’s darling daughter, for example, reduced to a ghost. And I’m not meeting the beasts of Stephen King! Oh and I’ve toyed with the notion of taking technology back in time - to be a god amongst men - the odd machine gun into Pillars of The Earth. But it’s just ego and silly. So I think I might take the opportunity instead to right a wrong. I shall stop off at Waitrose for some fresh cake, perhaps some macaroons and Twinnings, on my way to visit Estella and Miss Havisham, in the old house, and sing and weave my praises of Pip, to rescue those lost years. Time is too precious to waste; they ought to be together, before that last scene in the garden beneath the moon. For Estella’s sake, because we each carry for far too long the expectations and baggage of others before we truly know our own hearts. That’s my answer and I’m sticking to it!(less)

Showreel

To remind me of what I like to do - and make me do more of it! Not be so lazy - I’ve put together a YouTube channel - a place for short videos to live, after I’ve enjoyed making them. Being outside with a camera in my mouth whilst trying to surf a wave or catch a fish ...

I’ve spent the summer getting into the Wild Swimming bliss, tracing the River Dart from sea to high moor, salt to purest waters :)
