Background
Information
|
|
I've been writing since I was thirteen but never thought about writing anything heavier than a twelve-line poem till I was in my mid-thirties. Since then I've written five novels, a couple of plays and fifty-odd short stories to add to the huge pile of poetry I've produced over the years.
My major influences are Samuel Beckett, Franz Kafka, Douglas Adams and Keith Waterhouse - in no particular order.
