Meet the Author

After a working lifetime as a travel writer, in advancing years I have returned to my first love, fiction. For the most part it has been in the form of short stories until in 2005 I self-published the first book in a trilogy on what war does to people, especially the children and grandchildren of paprticipants. The first, 'Another Kind of Loving' is largely about the break-up of former Yugoslavia which I know well. The second, 'Beyond the Broken Gate' picks up the thread post 9/11 and has echoes of both the first and second World Wars. The third, 'Long Shadows' ties up all the loose ends of relationships formed in the first two. I am now working on new ideas, including a possible anthology of short stories.

    Awesome book!

    Fictional & yet I felt like I was reading about real people. The characters were so believable, the emotions so strong. The author explores what happens to the survivors of war, the foibles of ordinary people, & the indomitable spirit of people to overcome even the most horrendous adversity, especially when guided by an underlying love. It's not maudlin, not sappy, & in many ways unexpected.
