About me

Author With the Less Fattening Centres

My mum used to tell me lots of stories and read many books to me during my childhood although my reading was a little lazy. I loved fiction, fantasy, science fiction and history as a young boy and wanted nothing more than to go on adventures to distant lands and indeed far off planets.

My first gaming console was a Coleco-vision bought from Hamleys the toy shop in London and costing many months of hard work on my paper round and delivering vegetables for the green grocers, but boy was it work every penny. The game plugged into my tv using a scart plug and Donkey Kong was one of the games that came with it. The gorilla chased Mario around the screen and from that moment I was hooked on video games. Yes, I had played Pong at the local Pizza takeaway with the table tennis paddle to try and beat your opponent and then space invaders came along but this was another level. I could play at home when I wanted and there were intelligent opponents to fight.

My family encouraged me to learn more about all these subjects that I had grown to love and then I happened across mythology. I read many books on the various mythologies around the world and watched countless films made with small models for the special effects. Well before green and blue screen special effects that we have now. About fifteen years ago I retired and decided to start combining my love of all these subjects into writing stories and the shawl of Athena was conjured up. I did play around with the right characters to support the shawl and after many months I looked down at my King Charles cavalier dog and thought, you will be perfect. As to the human lead there have been so many male heroes that it was time for a female to take up the mantle and Milly came to life.

Milly and The Shawl of Athena with her very clever dog Louie Roi named after the Jungle book character will excite you as they use the shawl to investigate special moments in time. The next book Milly and the Tomb of Alexander is just being finalised and should be available mid 2025 with many more adventures to come. As a foot note I decided to make an audio book for those of you who want to listen to someone reading to you and it will be available later in the year.

Thank you for listening to my story and I really hope you give these lovable characters a chance to enter into your life.
