Specialities

Although I firmly believe that a good story is a good story, my own work tends to gravitate towards the genres of history and/or comedy.

In his own words

Writing a children's book has been identified as one of the top 10 things people would like to do. Now, through Greatvine, I can help writers achieve that goal, either by offering one-off advice or by working with an author on a book stage-by-stage.

I’ve written 57 children's books and I also write for radio, theatre and TV. I visit schools, colleges, libraries, bookshops and arts festivals all over the country, leading writing projects for all ages. Over the last five years, I’ve enjoyed helping new writers create books, plays, films, poetry, podcasts and opera libretti.
