I am a student at The University of Hull, Scarborough Campus in my second year of a BA (Hons)degree in Creative Writing. I aspire to be published in due course.

I write across genres, have a keen interest in poetry and am part way through writing my second novel after an aborted first which remains in the pending basket.Part way through a two act play and an anthology of poetry.

My current projects deal in police corruption, the IRA in the 1970s, global population controls, undercover policing operations,the life of Howard Marks, the life and works of Patrick O'Brian. Am beginning research on ways to narrow the communication gap between older and younger people through writing projects.

My reading for November 2011: The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas (John Boyne), The Ghost Road (Pat Barker), The Ode Less Travelled (Stephen Fry),Blood Kin (Ceridwen Dovey),The Sense of an Ending (Julian Barnes),Vernon God Little (DBC Pierre). Part way through fifth complete read of Aubrey/Maturin series of O'Brian. Not on my Patch Lad (Mike Pannett)

Favourite Poets; varies according to mood but recently; WH Davies,Coleridge, Shelley, Roald Dahl always in the list,Gwynneth Lewis.

Other interests: The Garden and all its wonders, travel,an imaginery dog called Charlie.
