My first attempt at serious writing was a play in Spanish in my sixth form at school. Much later, I wrote stage plays for my local amateur dramatic society, Cobham Players, in Surrey, for which I have acted as Chairman. In the last few years I have self-published two books of historical fiction. ‘Class of ’13’ is my first attempt at a modern-day novel. I’ve attended several writing courses, including two at Cambridge University’s ICE. In 2021 I reached the last 10% of some 6,000 entries in the BBC’s Writersroom Open Call event for a 45-minute radio play script.
My immediate ambition is to have ‘Class of ’13’ published professionally; meanwhile I am working on a second thriller, also set in Bristol.
My educational background is Cambridge University (Queens’ College, Modern Languages) and Harvard Business School.
