I am a writer with a background in psychology.

I am self-publishing an alternate history YA novel about a boy who befriends a wolf, Peterkin and the First Dog.

I’m also working on a book about what is sometimes called ‘poetic truth’ - the way language can bring something to life, go beyond the facts of the case to catch what lies between them. The provisional title is Strong Language.

I still have publication hopes for another novel, Red House. I’ve also written short stories - three published - and journal and conference papers.

I also plan to set up some blogs. The first, on the strong language theme, is up and running.
