Ernie

by Mark D. Radford

As the war was in full force around Ernie Starkey, this lonely lad in the streets of London was completely unprepared for the life changing experiences that he was about to face. An innocent visit to the grocery store with money in hand ended in losing so much as the sirens for the next air raid began to whine in his ears. Once the all clear was given, Ernie found that he had lost more than expected. This was a new start for Ernie and one that promises to take him on a new, but challenging future. It will involve making his own decisions and learn to put his trust in people he didn’t know. Ernie was raised with a strict upbringing that made him strong minded and made him more determined to succeed with life during and after the war. As his life moves on, he was going to need his more than ever. Follow Ernie’s story of devastation, loss, new adventures, love, grief and some very big decisions.

About the author

I started writing in 2004. This has since become my hobby. The books that are currently available are Identified, Revenged, Distant Cries, The Lift (Short Story) and Maggie.

At present, I am currently writing my latest novel called "Touched" of which will be released later this year.

I do not have a facebook account, but do have a link to Twitter @holte77 and my own website - www.markdradford.co.uk.

Like most authors, the big time is the ultimate dream. I am by no means a professional writer and certainly no proof reader, but somebody who has a few stories to tell.
It is nice to be able to switch off and away from any negatives on a day to day basis and then drift off into my own space to write.

A writing course educated me in thinking that nothing is poor, nothing is bad. The people that reflect on such things are purely suggesting that their opinion differs to others.

Also, a writer should not write for the view of others, a writer should write for themselves and they will eventually create their own audience.
