I have spent many years living the passion of being a writer and now it has been my good fortune to be involved in teaching Creative Writing at university level. I’ve learned the hard way about how to express myself in prose – that is by making millions of mistakes and writing thousands of pages that were simply destined for the dustbin. Out of this has come several novels, one of which has been published, and I am now working on another book.

If you are an aspiring writer or even an established writer, you can benefit from some personal coaching on both the technical aspects of writing and on the emotional side. Writer’s block is something most of us struggle with at some time or another, so if you’re in the grips of it, let’s see what’s behind it and get you up and running again.

I also run ongoing writing workshops, focusing on the novel and other long prose forms.
