I’ve been an electrician, a para-professional Engineering Officer and a Manager. For the last seven years, I’ve volunteered with the Rural Fire Service and have the rank of deputy captain.I have a wonderful wife, three great kids and two grandsons who are my world.At heart, I am and have always been a writer, and to improve my skills, I have studied creative writing at Technical and Further Education College (TAFE) and at the university level acquiring statements of attainment from TAFE, certificate, undergraduate and Master’s degrees from the University of Technology Sydney and Macquarie University.I’ve enjoyed seeing my short stories published in the England Review, the University of Technology Sydney Writers’ Anthology and Macquarie University’s literary journal, The Quarry (twice), and the student magazine, Grapeshot. In addition, online journals such as StylusLit, Australian Reader, and AntipodeanSF.One of my short stories was previously longlisted for the Lane Cove Literary Award here in Australia.I self-published two novels on Amazon and Smashwords, The Flower Woman’s Child and The Winning of the Woman, with a new SF Novel, For the Journey is Long, and Our Lonely World is Lost, recently published on Smashwordsvizualizați mai puține
