I’m a busy father of 2 young boys and husband of a busy language teacher. I live in Australia in eastern Melbourne. Writing is how I relax.
I didn’t set out to write a novel, not really, I thought I was writing another short story. One day I looked down and I had 50,000 words. At that point I decided to get serious and started researching how this fiction writing lark was supposed to be done. As you might imagine, a great deal of rewriting ensued, and the editing continues to this day.
All of my various jobs have involved writing (apart from my first one packing pyjamas in the HoleProof factory). I’m a wizard at non fiction – lesson plans, reports, training scenarios, tender documents, the odd journal article. The only real fiction was the project plans I submitted while working for the public service.
I am working towards getting published, but really, I write because I can’t imagine not writing.
