I listen to instrumental music when I write. I find that DeVotchKa has that special tragi-comic essence that inspires.

Readers occasionally ask me if I have any special superstitions or routines. I like to sit down at my desk and light a candle because there's something spontaneous about a candle flame and I believe writing too is spontaneous. The flame provides an energy maybe... I also ring a hotel-reception bell (once) which announces my arrival into the pseudo-reality of my fiction, kindve like a hotel, which is a surreal place if you ask me, it's got a quasi-reality to it which is where I like to be when writing - possible but vaguely absurd at the same time...off-kilter: a normal place where Larger than Life is menú of the day.

Thanks Mia!

It's not a 5 but you wont hear me complaining. 4 is just about as real as it gets...

'This is a perfect book to read if you are having a bad week. Silly and outrageous, and so much fun to read. The main character sucks you in with his quirky, pathetic lifestyle, you just want to know how his quest is going to end.'

My kinda review!

Thanks to Readers who have invested a few shillings in my books (that are an acquired taste). Each book takes a year to write and it gives me a lift when somebody takes a chance on my books.
