Kent-based writer and creative writing tutor

I’m a writer of short stories, poems, novels, non-fiction books and screenplays who lives in Kent. I was a creative writing tutor in Tunbridge Wells for 12 years before I moved to the beautiful city of Canterbury.

Creative writing courses

I ran creative writing courses in the nearby seaside town of Whitstable until the pandemic changed our lives. These courses covered not only writing techniques but also advice on marketing your work. Please see the Workshops page for more information on how to get the help you need during this difficult time.

Published author

At the time of writing, I’ve had four novels and two non-fiction books published. My fifth novel called “The Vienna Connection” is being published this autumn. This is Book 1 of an intriguing story of lost identity which moves location from America, Vienna and Switzerland before and after WW 2. During the pandemic, I wrote Book 2 which is called “Echoes of Silence”.

I was thrilled to win 2nd prize in the Welsh International Poetry Competition in 2020. In the future, I intend writing many more novels, screenplays and poems.
