Hello everyone! Welcome to my author's spotlight page. I hope you will find something you like here but first, let me tell you a bit about myself. I was born in 1971 in Griffithstown, Wales, UK. I grew up in a small town called Cwmbran, near Newport. I attended Brookfield Junior & Infants school between 1975 and 1982. My memory of my time there forms a large part of my comedy memoir 'My Life With Kate Bush', which you can find in the list of books below. This book, weighing in at just under 87,000 words, is a love story between myself, Kate Bush and a host of supporting characters from the 1970's and 1980's, including Top Trumps, Big Trak, an Amstrad CPC 464, Ladybird Books and Space Dust. I love horror and ghost stories, having read most of the works of Stephen King, H.P.Lovecraft, M.R.James, Clive Barker, Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu and many others. I also have a strong love of comedy, with Peter Cook and Dudley Moore, Monty Python, Will Hay and the works of Douglas Adams.
