Born in Essex, I currently reside in Bromley, Kent (UK) where I live with my wife, three sons (no more!) and a King Charles Spaniel called Scout.

After attaining a degree in Ancient History from Kent University in 2000, I held various jobs before joining the Home Office later the same year.

Currently I am a senior manager, heading up a security and recruitment enablers team by day and writer by lunch!

Officially I am also the Lord of Tattingstone - a square metre of grass in a muddle field north of England.

I began writing seriously 8 years ago and have recently published my fifth novel, "Within Stone's Shadow." It is the third book in a planned 4 book series entitled, "The Ballad of Frindoth."
