Reader…writer…rocker…fighter! This is probably the best way to sum me up. I was born in Ashford, Middlesex, but moved up to Bradford, West Yorkshire at an early age. I have pretty much stayed here since. I have two gorgeous children, and possibly the most amazing and patient wife a man could wish for. I am one of the authors of Lazarball, which is book one of the Anumal Empire series. Further books in the series are currently in production. Having spent some of my youth on stage and on the TV, I also write television and film scripts. I am due to be awarded my BA Honours in English Language and Literature very soon. When I am not writing, I am either singing in my metal band Old School Enemy, or practicing a martial art called Krav Maga. Old School Enemy play an energetic set of our own origional material, which is very much akin to the Foo Fighters, and Krav Maga is an Israeli martial art devised in the 70’s. Krav is hailed as one of the most practical forms of self defence created. Now do you see why my wife is so patient? When I do finally relax, I love reading, especially fantasy and science fiction, as well as transgressive fiction. http://www.anumalempire.com http://www.oldschoolenemy.co.uk
