Nick B. Ponter Author and Business English Trainer I was born near Windsor, England in 1968. My interesting career started as a carpenter, then in the army and foreign service. I now work as a business English trainer in Germany. A school prize in English was an early indicator for my interest in writing fantasy. I gained a Bachelor in International Studies, influencing my story telling with a focus on modern contemporary issues. I love travelling and lived in Asia for six years. I am inspired by outdoor activities and heavy metal. Most of my story was written in a tent at the River Weser and in the Alps.
