They're fancy talkers about themselves, writers.  If I had to give young writers advice I would say don't listen to writers talking about writing or themselves"

Lillian Helman

 

“Ooops!”

Welcome!

 

 

Thank you for visiting me here.

 

Although still in its primitive stages I have - as in art and life - great ambitions for this site.  But for the moment I'll keep it simple.

 

The hardest thing to write, I find, are biographical notes, all that stuff about where you was born, grew up, went to school, lived and travelled to, so I shall leave it out.  Enough to say I currently live in Tasmania, I have two adult sons who don't live with me and a ginger cat who does.

 

I shall mention instead my passions. I love language and literature; I delight in the life of the imagination; I am fascinated by the stories of other people's lives.  Surely that is enough reason to write.

 

As a consequence of these passions I write fiction, oral history, articles, reviews, biography, and poetry.  Examples of my work can be found in My Bookcase and on the New Work page.

 

Before I gave it up to write my day job was teaching adults and as a consequence I have many years experience as a teacher - you can check out C.V. These days I mainly teach creative writing.  Watch for the Online Creative Writing Course coming soon to this site!

 

I also enjoy working with new and emergent writers in a variety of ways. A list of services and the cost can be found at Writers Reign

 

If you are, or want to be, a writer, you might like to take a look at Writers Reign to see what I can do for you.
