Welcome
Thanks for dropping by.
I’m an author. Along the way I’ve also been a Royal Naval officer and a businessman, but now I write full time. It’s a lot more fun, and a joy to share my work with readers.
I like creating stories with complex, conflicted characters that a reader can bleed with, cry for, and perhaps fall in love with. They live in worlds where you can smell the sweat and the sewers as well as the roses, but where you might also encounter something numinous.
If you like the work of authors such as Mark Lawrence (Red Sister, etc), Robin Hobb (the Farseer Trilogy, etc), or Guy Gavriel Kay (The Lions of Al-Rassan, etc), you’ll love my Rune Song epic fantasy trilogy, Hammer of Fate, Runes of Battle, and Blood of Wolves.
Please do join my mailing list. There’s free a book of short stories to download. I’ll also keep you updated on future releases and give you some insights into the inspiration behind the books. Follow me on social media if you’d like more frequent updates and Contact me if you have suggestions, or ideas for collaboration.
I try to respond promptly to all messages. Forgive me if I don’t; it probably means I am in my writing cabin, which is fifty yards and five hundred years from the house.
