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.
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.
In the last few years I self-published two books of historical fiction. I have since embarked on a series of thrillers, "The Bristol Stories". The first in the series was "Class of ’13", which was a Finalist in the 2024 Page Turner Awards and was self-published in October 2024. The second in the series will be "The Gorge".
My educational background is Cambridge University (Queens’ College, Modern Languages) and Harvard Business School.
