- About Me:
- I’m the creator of the East London Adventurers Club mystery series and a classically trained artist. I've been painting for over 30 years, having done numerous commissions, illustrations for national products and co-authored and illustrated a children's book. Writing was always something I enjoyed doing, but never had the opportunity to pursue seriously until recently. By combining my creative talents with a passion for art and antiquities, I conceived the fictional world of the East London Adventurers Club.
- I Am A:
- Reader, Writer
- Books And Authors I Like:
- The Jessie Stone series by Robert B. Parker, Barchester Towers by Anthony Trollope and any of the Agatha Christie books.
