Who are you?

A flawed but likeable character, often loved, rarely despised, aware that I’m not the man I thought I was and never will be, and given the chance, I’d slip back into the past, never to return. I’m also English to my coccyx, in the Monty Pythonesque tradition if you will, and sick and tired of people who moan about the inadequacies of what is one of the most tolerant societies on this earth.

What do you write?

Well, I dabble in various genres. At the moment, I’m working on a humorous crime novel with the emphasis on humorous, and am co-writing a comedy blog entitled Tails From The Bird & Buffalo which has been described as “the surreal side of the existential”, which just about sums it up.

Why do you write what you write?

To explore, amuse, engage, to feel as much as I can. Oh, and to share the human condition as it appears to me with anyone who cares to drop by.

Why should we read what you write?

Because I don’t hold back, because I mean what I say, because I’m charting my journey through this life and at some point or other something will resonate with others and let them/she/he know that they/she/he are/is not alone.

Is the world a better place because of what you write?

It’s certainly not a worse place. If it helps for a moment, if it makes someone laugh or cry or think for a few minutes, for a second even, well, then, yes, the world is a better place. We’re all in this thing together, right?
