about me

Having spent 10 months working hard to obtain a gold medal for BADD under the old system, it is counter productive for me to spend more time networking to reach the editor in this new system.

HEALTH WARNING. Due to sitting for too long at a stretch 'doing' Authonomy - I developed a clot in my right leg - part of this then moved to my lungs. That nearly killed me. I soon fully recovered, but I do strongly advise regular walk abouts at short intervals. I was lucky - DVT is serious and a pulmonary embolism is often fatal.

Currently, I either write, play golf, or chess, or I invent things.
For me, surviving childhood was probably a miracle - experience has prompted many cautionary tales in BADD. This comprised 25 linked, true-to-life dramas / comedies that follow a young boy growing up. At first, Barry is a minor menace, but he ends up a hero. The stories are aimed to engage parents, teachers, young adults, and particularly children aged 8 -11. Many children in this age group have read BADD and heartily approve.

Using Createspace I have recently published BADD: Book 1 Menace to hero , After much revision and adding several chapters I split BADD, the book that was shown here, into two. I am gradually splitting my other 5 books, I will thus end up with a 12 book series - in this my antihero, ages 9 - 13.
BADD: Book 1 Menace to hero, is now on sale on KINDLE.
In paperback it is for sale on AMAZON USA BOOKS and on AMAZON UK books.
BADD: Book 2, HAUNTED BY CATS is now for sale on Kindle and is free to borrow. Book 3 is nearly ready.
My books are copyright D A Seaby or David Allen Seaby

BADD has been made private on Authonomy.
