I was born in Southampton, Hampshire in 1958, and grew up on the edge of the New Forest. At the age of 13 I was lucky enough to win a county scholarship to Winchester College (1972-76). From there I went to St. Catharine's College, Cambridge (1977-80) where I read Natural Sciences. I then went to Southampton University where I studied for a PhD in synthetic chemistry.

I spent two years as a post-doctoral fellow at St George's Hospital Medical School in south London, where I met my wife Mary. We now live near Camberley in Surrey, where I work for the research division of a major international pharmaceutical company.

I have been writing seriously since 1995, and have had somewhere above 20 short stories published. I have also published 4 novels, two adventure fantasy novels Exile and Nandor (collectively the Nandor Tales) and two contemporary fantasy novels Shadows of Faerie and Deeper Shadows of Faerie.

Beside writing I follow cricket, and Southampton FC, and enjoy a good pub quiz.
