edit data

My experiences while living in Egypt, Malaysia, Indonesia and Saudi Arabia inspired me to write stories set in different locations. Some of the locations for my stories include Thailand, Vietnam, Hong Kong and Sri Lanka. I have also written a fantasy book called Tale of the Birds. My short stories have appeared in several anthologies and Internet magazines, receiving positive reviews from readers and editors.

I live in Lichfield with my wife and our two adopted Indonesian streetcats, and also, during university holidays, our son and daughter.

Update: The Killing Kind

Initially, I took a major false turn with The Killing Kind: Angel of the South Book Three. Basically, for various reasons, I didn’t have time to plan it as thoroughly as I would have liked.
