I've been writing seriously for about four years now and have three books 'in the bank' waiting to be published. I'm currently writing a fourth.

I belong to Havering Writers' Circle, Havering being a London borough to the East. We meet once a month and I try to produce a new short story based on a 'what if...' scenario that one of our members dreams up. My first submission to this site is one of these. I hope it entertains you as much as it did my hard-bitten HWC colleagues.

Like most people, finding an agent and going down the traditional path to fame and, hopefully, fortune is next to impossible. Still, the world turns and e-books will, for the most part, replace this traditional method. Any agents reading my stuff: I'm still open to being approached - we will, together, make shed-loads of money, I'm sure.

I have had one short story published in paperback and electronically. I hope you like my first one here.
