I live by the sea in one of the most beautiful cities in the world. I haven't always lived by the sea, but it has always been a life-long dream of mine. Now I call it home. 

As a young adult I was completely enthralled by Robert Ludlum's Jason Bourne series and that sparked my early desire to write the kind of nail biting stories that captivated and enthralled me as a young reader. 

Growing up in the eighties, my biggest regret is that it took me years to get my first computer which put my plans to be a writer on hold, and during the wait something called a career interfered further with my dream. Still, the desire to be a writer burned beneath the daily mundanities of work life and I was always contriving stories in the back of my mind. 

I've written 10 nail biting suspense novels under the pen name Adam Alexander (www.adam-Alexander-author.com) and now I'm exploring an entirely new genre, something I've been doing without really trying to, but thats worked out well in small doses - writing humour. 

Since my move to Cape Town, rated one of the top cities in the world to live in, I've discovered so many fantastic places to eat, and wines to drink, and I've written about them in my food blog (FB: Adam talks Food and Wine). Because if the great comments and feedback I've received on the food blogs, I'm working on a series of travel/humour books which I hope you'll love and enjoy, and even more, I hope it inspires you to visit this amazingly beautiful city on the bottom end of Africa.
