ABOUT ME
I started writing for spoof news website Newsbiscuit and have written comedy sketches for BBC radio and ITV, then published my first two books - non-fiction works about sport.
My first fiction books were three humorous middle-grade novels - Eco-Worrier, Danny Mann Super Fan and The Man with the Magic Foot. Eco-Worrier was a finalist in the 2021 Wishing Shelf Awards (books for 9-12 year olds category) and Danny Mann Super Fan won the Purple Dragonfly Book Award for sports books in 2022.
I live in Somerset in the UK with my wife, two children and two black cats.
