WHAT
ARE YOU
LAUGHING
AT?

Having spent most of my working life colouring in (as a graphic designer)
I have now dipped my toe into the world of poetry and performance. I have developed a compulsion to write poems mostly taking a swipe at myself, the digital age, the challenges that life throws at us – oh, yes and you too!

WHAT ABOUT ME…

I have enjoyed working in publishing for most of my life. My propensity for typos will make it amusing to those close to me that I now consider myself a wordsmith. I have discovered that there is much humour to be found in life and you don’t have to look very far to find it.

I grew up by the sea in Devon, so have never quite managed to shake off the urge to plunge in all year round – yes, I am part of that irritating band of cold-water swimmers who insist on telling you all about it – all the time. Today I will mostly be found dipping in a gravel pit, but the rewards are still the same!

Coming soon…

I’m excited to announce that my first book of prose,
‘It’s not Life or Death’ will be available soon. I cover an array of topics, mostly based on first-hand experience
– there will be something there to tickle your fancy.

 

Life is funny right? Even when it isn’t, there is humour to be found, and it might just help you to navigate the bumpy ride that life can sometimes be.
