He failed English twice, but this did not hold him back from his goals. Always a storyteller, he finds treasures or adventures under every rock through his imagination. A traveller who turns up when his friends and family least expect it, he is now tackling his newest adventure with writing stories and producing products and toys for the wee people who believe in fairies and magic.view less
