For people who don't know you can you tell us a little bit about
yourself?
I’m originally from the UK and moved to
Brisbane, Australia eight years ago. In the past I’ve played guitar in bands,
worked as a broadcast assistant with BBC Radio, been a TV/film extra, worked in
publishing and helped run a pub in the English countryside. Not all at the same
time.
What inspired you to first start writing?
I’ve always had a very good imagination
so I guess it was a natural progression from that – I enjoy telling stories. I
have a thirst for learning so I’m always reading newspaper articles and a lot
of those inspire new ideas for stories too.
What is the name of your most recent book? Can you give us a short
description?
Under Fire follows explosives expert Dan Taylor as he tries to prevent a
terrorist attack on the UK’s gas supplies during the worst winter on record
before innocent lives are lost
What is your all-time favorite book?
I always say Jack Higgins’ The Eagle Has Landed because I first
read my Grandad’s copy when I was about 12 or 13 and that got me hooked on the
thriller genre. I read it again earlier
this year knowing that I’d probably get asked this question and it’s still a
great read.
Do you prefer ebooks or physical copies?
Both – eBooks are great to try out new
authors, or read books where the author hasn’t published in paperback, but I
love physical copies – I have hundreds!
Do you ever write in your PJ's?
No – I don’t own PJs.
