Disabled by a polio vaccine many years ago, and possibly considered a drain on the NHS by some, sold by my father and kidnapped by a foster parent, I feel I have an insight into life's little foibles. I am uneducated in the formal sense, so my main aptitude is an imagination and a good sense of humour.
I started my writing with poems and found some success, managing to get published in the Staffordshire Life magazine as well as other publications. One of my poems listed alongside; Coleridge's, Lord Tennyson's, Shakespeare, DeFord and Taylor Swift is used in a Russian university to teach how to determine rhyme.
I write for two ex-pat newspapers in Spain and wrote for an ex-pat magazine for two years. I am now on my fourth book, part autobiography and part fiction, so some of it is false and some of it is true, but as for which is which, I leave that up to you.view less
