About the author

Before being a publisher Richard was a full time writer with over 60 books published on a wide range of subjects including business, astrology, alternative medicine, Chinese culture, sex and humour (not all in any one book though). Before being a writer - although that was what he always wanted to do - he did many jobs including being a casino general manger, business consultant, cave guide and stress management consultant (again never all at one time).

His first book for his own publishing company – The Voice of Tobacco - came out in September 2003. It is Richard's own journal of giving up smoking.
He wrote Out Of Your Townie Mind which was published in May 2004 and it guides the townie through their dream of escaping to the countryside.

A great guide to the technique. Unfortunately, I read it in a mediocre Spanish translation.
