Geoff Boxer wrote freelance articles for UK magazines and worked as a salesperson, engineer, and laboratory technician before moving to Australia in 1984. Intending to start a publishing business in Melbourne he, instead, sold business equipment and became Melbourne's largest independant business equipment dealer. After selling the business to a large Japanese corporation, he concentrated on property developing, and various hobbies, including golf and writing. Geoff now lives with his family on the Gold Coast, Queensland Australia; beautiful one day, perfect the next.
