Thank you for visiting my website.

I am a lifelong writer. Growing up in the 1970s and 1980s, I know what it’s like to have three TV networks, one superhero movie, and a little film called Star Wars.

I write about books, music, film, history, and all sorts of pop culture goodness on my blog.

I also write novels and short stories.

Have a look around and see if there’s something you enjoy. If so, let me know by commenting on one of the blog posts, emailing me, or joining my newsletter.
