Thanks for coming. A quick bit about me. I was born in Plymouth, England a long time ago but I’ve lived most of my life in Scotland. I’ve written stage and radio plays, songs and sketches for revues, flash fiction, short stories, novels, stories for children and books aimed at helping students to get the most out of university and write effective academic essays and dissertations. I’ve been a university lecturer, actor, director, TV presenter. I’ve also spent a few years as a Royal Literary Fund Writing Fellow in universities in Aberdeen, Dundee and St Andrews.
I love writing and exploring many forms and genres. I love the power of even the simplest words. I love the intimacy that’s established between writer and reader as, together, even at a distance, we turn fictions into realities.
