Since my mid-teens I had always considered myself as a poet. I never thought I’d ever write a novel, so, I somewhat surprised myself (and others) that when I hit my late fifties, I eventually I did.


The Asylum Soul is my debut which was published in 2015 and to date is still my most popular novel. It was always meant to be a ‘one off’ but people liked it and urged me to carry on writing.


In 2017, I published Fly Back and Purify. It wasn’t a sequel to The Asylum Soul, however, it did address some of the answered questions, such as ‘What happened to Tommy?’ I had purposely left open at the end. One kind reader described the book as a ‘cult classic’ which I thought was very generous.


By now, I had caught the writing bug and in 2019, An Invisible Nemesis was released. I knew I had to look at a change of subject matter and to date this is very different to all my other books.


Jude & Bliss, published in 2020, is a novel very close to my heart. The research itself was eye-opening and very poignant. This included a visit to Bagshot Cemetery to the grave of Emily Jane Popejoy who inspired my character, Jude Rogers. The book was also given a big shout out via a video link from the iconic singer and actress, Toyah Willcox.


I loved writing Fluke’s Cradle which was published in 2022. The novel is set in my hometown of Camberley in Surrey. The book enabled me to resurrect some elements of my past including locations and some of the people who were around back in the 1970s.


The Story of Virna Babineaux came out in 2023. Again, it has a paranormal element. In my opinion the book deserves much more recognition than it has so far received, however, that is probably due to an own goal by myself, as In the Shadow of Marc Bolan was released so soon after.


In the Shadow of Marc Bolan was published in July 2024 and has received many accolades and much exposure. It has been endorsed by the Official Marc Bolan Fan Club, The T.Rex  Action Group and Danielz, the lead singer of tribute band, T.Rextasy, amongst others.


My latest novel, Betrayal of the Soul came out in June 2026. I think most men particularly, if they are honest will be able to identify with certain elements, such as mid-life crisis and depression which are covered in the story. Although I say it myself, I would like to think that this book contains some of my best writing. I've been asked if Betrayal of the Soul is my autobiography in disguise. Mmm.
