Born under a gooseberry bush. Bitten by the writing bug in my teens, I finally managed to get back to writing in 2005 after half a lifetime of plausible excuses. I write thrillers and short stories. I live in Ireland with my first wife and second son, although a significant proportion of my family lives in Australia.
