From being very young I was always read to. Literature is a big part of my family and a great love. I fell hard for all those turn of the century morality poems, Mathilda and the rest. I've also got a soft spot for classic ghost stories and such. Not much modern horror really rings my bell anymore, I try to get hold of the odd collection of shorts but my real love is crime. Whether classic English garden party stuff or you're hard boiled Americana I don't care. Give me death, give me detectives, I'm happy. My most popular stories have been the "Dead Dave" collection, I'd like to tell you they're high art, it'd be a lie. They are however, great fun to read and they have big guns in 'em. Ironically, I'm scared of guns.

Err, well, we won the pub quiz once, does that count?

More nonsense, stories about crack addicted hedgehogs and general silliness. You'll also find my rejection letters posted up there every so often too.
