I'm a former serving soldier and police officer. I've also worked around the globe as a security consultant. It's fair to say I've had my fair share of adventures and if I'm honest, probably more misadventures. I grew up on a diet of Hammer House of Horror and the Twilight Zone thanks to my grandmother. Of course these early experiences combined with my working life provide the basis for my scripts and short stories that I write in predominantly the supernatural/horror/strange tales areas.
When I arrived in Canada I attended the sadly now defunct Canadian Screen Training Centre in Ottawa. They gave me a big push in terms of writing and contacts with the courses I attended. Thanks to those individuals I've had three option agreements to date and I've had development funds awarded from the Harold Greenberg Fund at Astral Media for one of my feature scripts. I've also had three supernatural short stories published.
I write because I can't imagine not writing........and also because it's cheaper than therapy.
