Burgess Hill, nr Brighton |
I live in Burgess Hill, about 12 miles from Brighton. I'm 34 and work for a company called Skills South East, working on the government Train To Gain contract. I have another job working at The Railway pub just outside Burgess Hill station. I started writing at Portsmouth University where I studied criminology, so the crime genre has always fascinated me, probably because it's so far from the reality of my life. |
Crime / political action thriller |
Chaotic - Lots of plots and sub plots all merged into one thrill ride |
Apart from reading and writing I'm also a member of the Brighton Nightwriters. Politics is another passion of mine, or rather criticising the Coalition and Labour, which sparked my interest in writing The Road To Revolution. |
Crime / Politics / Drama / Action / Gangster. |
The Godfathr (mario Puzo), All Stephen Leather's 'Spider' Shepherd books, Gangster (Lorenzo Carcaterra) Run For Home (Sheila Quigley) and Exit Wounds (Shaun Hutson) |
Favourite authors are Stephen Leather, Mario Puzo, Robert Crais, Michael Connelly and Lorenzo Carcaterra. |
Eminem - his lyrics are awesome. |
With great power, comes great responsibility - Spiderman. |
