My forté in writing is poetry. I generally write in open, contemporary form. My poetry is emotive and usually based on my own feelings and experiences, though sometimes this is not the case.

I am also a proficient prose writer, mostly of fiction. It is difficult to describe any more about my writing, so please visit the complete collection of my writing to see for yourself.  Many of these poems are also available for use as lyrics in songs, please contact me if you wish to collaborate in this way.

My inspirations and influences include James Charlton, Geoff Goodfellow, Mitchell Joe, Michael Crichton, James Clavell, Bill Bryson, Iain Banks, Douglas Adams, Sei Shonagon, and Ben Elton.

I am keen to have my work published, so please contact me if you can help, or if you wish for my writing services in some way. I am also happy to write non fiction such as articles, promotional, etcetera.  I also write reviews!

If you would like to see a complete collection of my writing, in chronological order and categorised for your convenience, please visit my writing blog.
I recommend the “Best Of” list, for obvious reasons.
