About Me...
I'm a writer, publisher and author living in Evesham, Worcestershire, since 2017, having been born and bred in Oxfordshire.
​
After a long career in market research, I decided to pursue my lifelong dream of writing for a living. This became a reality when I joined the Oxford Mail as a weekly columnist in 2013. Other work soon followed.
​
After writing three non-fiction books, primarily about parenting, I released my first novel, The Time Bubble, in the summer of 2014. Sequels quickly followed, and by the end of 2024, the series concluded after fifteen novels.
​
From 2023, I began developing new ideas, firstly with a couple of humorous novels set in the 1970s, released as The Ronnie and Bernard adventures. Then, from 2024, things really took off with the launch of my 1980s-themed A Year in the Life series.
​
Away from writing, one of my main interests is food! As an official Hambassador for Love Pork, I achieved fame in 2013 when I became Britain's official sausage taster (cue lots of dodgy jokes!) After sampling some 300 sausages, I got to choose the winners at the prestigious British Sausage Week awards alongside celebrity chef, Simon Rimmer (pictured). My role as a Hambassador has also led to me fronting various corporate videos. I have also guested on many podcasts, as well as running two of my own.
In 2025, I was accepted into the Alliance of Independent Authors as an Authorpreneur member, their highest tier of membership, for writers who have attained a substantial level of book sales. This was a great achievement for me, having come a long way since I cut my teeth writing those Oxford Mail columns, all those years ago.
