about me

**I'm in Costa Rica from 10-28th August, so I'm not going to be on here very much lol - If you comment/back/msg me I'll get back to you as soon as I get back to UK, honest!**

Mild-mannered wage-slave by day, daring author by night...

Getting a short story published in an anthology towards the end of the year! Been shortlisted for a couple of competitions too, exciting stuff!

The Heart of Nightmares is all complete at 67k, I'm working on the second and about 7 other books, not all for the children's market by any means!

Champagne for real friends, real pain for sham friends...

favourite books

Neil Gaiman is the bee's knees. The man is a genius and can pack more ideas into one of his novels than most can muster in a lifetime.

The Princess Bride, OBVIOUSLY.

A bunch of Graphic Novels, including Preacher, Hellblazer, Watchmen ofc (Alan Moore, visionary).

Hi there, There's a lot of good stuff here. The similarities to 'The Road' (and indeed Matheson's 'I Am Legend') are pretty clear, but that's a good thing in my opinion - the post-apocalyptic setting is great for exploring all sorts of themes. However, that said, I think that your writing is s... view book

Very well written - good dialogue, nice touches here and there, and obviously excellent descriptions. It's not my thing, really, but reading through I couldn't find any obvious flaws - very polished work. As others have mentioned, there is an Eyes Wide Shut feel to this in the tension and the way... view book

Lovely poetic feel to the writing which makes the information easy to read and digest. There's not a lot to offer criticism on, and I actually quite enjoyed reading what you've put up on the site. Good luck with this. Eldias view book

Hi there, I've backed this, because I like the premise and lots of it made me chuckle. However, I have some big reservations - The first chapter seems to have some perfect/pluperfect tense issues, far too many references to numbers and a voice that can't quite decide between too chatty and not... view book

This is powerful, powerful stuff. Wow. Brave subject matter, beautifully handled. I was really swept away by the story from that sudden moment when Faraz suddenly has a go at Rania, and from there I was just carried away by the wonderful prose. I will say that I felt that there were some issues i... view book
