I have always written. My preferred vessel for sailing my stories is the short story. I like the discipline and I’ve had many successes with them. That doesn’t mean I’m not writing novels too, with the same joy and less success. I’ve written many scripts for stage and hope to again as the human voice and expression are powerful tools in storytelling.
I don’t have a preferred genre and like to delve into the world of imaginary places and situations but everything I write has a foundation in the experiences we have as humans and the ways we enjoy them and also survive them.
I’ve written and performed work, which helped me understand how to consider audiences and I’ve banged out a fair few articles, how to’s and instructions.
As well as writing over the years I’ve taught my subject in numerous ways and venues. It is a pleasure to be with people when they grow and find themselves as writers.
