A Scot now living in Singapore, which means I'm confused by warm rain and freezing cold cinemas. Nevertheless, I have some fantastic space and views to allow my creativity to wander. I completed my first book in Scotland, a test, to see if I could get through the process and layer stories to keep them fluid and fun. Everyday, my 3 hour round trip on the bus from Edinburgh to the Scottish Borders allowed me a little sandbox in which to bury myself and focus. I love adventure, let's face it, who doesn't? My work so far is science fiction but with a strong tether in reality. It's situational, questioning how you would react in these circumstances. The first book was focussed on adults but now I'm working on a series (Barnaby Brown) that I think encapsulates the best elements of all true universal adventures and is aimed and children and adults alike, an adventure they can all take at bedtime or whenever.
