All my works are available from www.lulu.com and some are also available from www.dpdotcom.comBorn and bred in Sydney, Australia, one of the 'awkward generation' of the 'baby boomers' - born near the end; too young to be in the fun and social revolution of the 1960s and too old to enjoy the fruits of it's flow on into the school system. The youngest of three born to a local truck driver and a mother with an eye condition; She was totally blind before I went to school. I grew up in an environment where nothing breakable was left near the edge of the table. I spent a lot of time in the adult world acting as my mother's eyes; thus having a more adult view of the world than my peers.After leaving school at sixteen I worked at everything from door-to-door sales, law enforcement, to administration and management; earning many qualifications in my own time. I wrote many reports, technical, and training papers for work. I've written millions of words of fiction before I started writing stories for sale
