His Father completed military service during the Second World War in the Polish Army commanded by General Anders, serving in Egypt and Italy. On the Battlefield of Monte Cassino in Italy, he was wounded and subsequently decorated with the Virtuti Militarii, the highest Polish military honour, equivalent to the Victoria Cross. After a false start working for the Civil Service, W.J.Hallan left and studied Industrial Design Engineering, graduating in 1977. Then commenced a successful career in Product Design Engineering, designing television, audio, computer and military products as an in house designer for various companies. Whilst working as Design Manager for a company in Leeds, redundancy encouraged him to go into business as a Design Consultant. His writing career started by narrating bedtime stories to his two young daughters, captivated them night by night, even though he had no idea how and and in what direction the stories would develop, as there was no prior planning. He has a passion for good food, books, art and design, motorcars, history and a keen interest in parapsychology related to human development. W.J.Hallan resides with his partner in Lancashire - England, writing novels and working as a Product Design Engineer.view less
