About the Author

Born in Leicester, June 1942 and raised in S.E. London, after a short time in the printing industry I was a mechanical engineer for the majority of my life and remained an engineering manager until I retired.
With pressure of work, raising a family and my interest in restoring Vintage and Classic cars, I never found time for writing other than poetry and was proud to have six of my poems selected for publication in “20th Century Poets” in 1977. Encouraged by this achievement I decided to write about a romantic encounter I had as a teenager but only completed the first chapter, after retirement I wrote the romantic novel “The Guitar Man”.
I married Patricia the girl next door in Sept 1966, and moved to Sidcup, Kent in 1970. We have two sons, one in Sydney Australia and the other in Florida U.S.A.
