I am a professional freelance writer, editor and writing teacher living in the English county of Staffordshire.
I write mainly non-fiction, on subjects including personal finance, small business matters, PR and marketing, self-employment, personal development, creative writing, grammar and punctuation, and so on.
As well as books, I also write training courses, including the CD-based "Write Any Book in Under 28 Days", published by The WCCL Network. In addition, I write web page content, newsletters, articles, advertising materials, novelty products, and more.
Although non-fiction pays the bills, I also enjoy reading and writing fiction (especially science fiction/fantasy) when time permits.
I live in a small town called Burntwood with my partner, Jayne, who is a lecturer at a local college, and a variable number of cats.
