I’ve been telling stories for fifty years

Come with me on a journey

The journey, I suppose, of landscapes, of events, of people that I’ve seen and met during my life as a writer. I hope you’ll find all sorts of things that will amuse you, as they did me, with links to some of my poems and projects as well as my history and Publications. If you are a booker, there’s information under the heading Pressin the About Me section that you can use directly for publicity.  I’ll let you know about any Events that I’m taking part in with dates and so on.

Here are my Blogs:

  • An as-and-when journal about anything that takes my fancy under Latest

  • A daily journal of the people, weather and happening on Bournemouth’s West Cliff Green.

  • Something that I hope will make you think is the story of my journey as a storyteller. Click on the “My Story Story” link here and start with the Praeludium.

  • And now a blog where you will find a collection of ideas about The Burning Stage

Look out for my Railway Tales on You Tube

I love machines. Trains, planes, motorbikes, farm machinery. I get the same elemental pleasure from observing machines as I do from watching nature. I like to plunge in, fathoms deep, into the visceral heart of machinery. There is as much pleasure in the sound of a BSA Gold Star motorbike or the three cylinder bark of a Class A2 4-6-2 as there is in hearing the song of the wren hidden in a gorse bush nearby.

Here are some of the journeys I’ve been on:
