I practised as a lawyer here in the UK for many years. Practised and practised until I got it right LOL. I'm not a team player so I ran my own show for most of the time. An arson attack and a doctor's warning about stress put paid to it in the end. Fortunately the internet was just taking off so I was able to migrate to writing with a little financial help from assembling and repairing PCs on the side.
Writing has always been my passion. I've written a lot of material for other people to publish, and other writing that's never seen the light of day.
Other interests? You really want to know? How much time do you have? Okay here's just a few - archeology, natural health, history (medieval and modern mainly), karate (wait a minute - I haven't done that for over 30 years), reading and writing (I told you I wasn't a team player), computers and technology (that's waning a bit now), classic films and classical music. Then there's the really weird stuff like divining and healing, but I won't go into that.
What? Oh, yes, where do I live and all that. Born in Kent, I'm a Kentish Man, I believe, that is, born to the west of the Medway. Now I live in the middle of old England with Ruth, my wife, and a talkative budgie called Sydney. Two grown up children, and, er, that's about it.
