More About the Author

I'm in the business of generating alternative realities and then exploring them. This, I claim, is not schizophrenia. A Canadian writer and editor based in Bangkok, I've also lived in England, where I did graduate work at Oxford, and in Kuwait, where I learned to sail, waterski, and make a credible wine in plastic garbage bins.

My chief skills are words and tunnels. Before the Oxford and Kuwait days, my employment experience included, among other things, four jobs as a driller and stope leader in mines and tunnels in Ontario and Quebec. There's been little call for tunneling these days, but since moving to Thailand I've produced many articles on a wide variety of topics, four novels, a collection of occasional pieces, a diving guide to Thailand, another book on diving, and a book on Thailand's coral reefs. I've also co-authored a book on Thailand's national parks.

I'm currently at work on a fifth novel, the second of a futuristic triogy that begins with MOM.

Aside from MOM and Diving in Thailand, my books are currently out of print.
