CORRUPTION CRIME and ESTABLISHMENT MISCHIEF Started me writing thrillers. Short of spending a lifetime in jail, a vengeance trail of murder and mayhem has few acceptable alternatives. Writing is one of them. Sad to say, the pursuit of evil people may end in tragedy for both sides of an investigation. Tears may trickle down my cheeks as I write because my world as a writer is real to me. Crime fiction provides a means of pursuing nasty people with satisfying, imaginative robustness. My thrillers offer a sense of recourse against corrupt people and cadres who screw us and steal our money. PAY BACK? Even though such people hurt me in the past, I wish them no harm. In fact, I'm grateful to such deceivers for providing, as they do, the basis of The Angels' Share series. It's good to have a solid foundation for fiction: rooted in grievance and amplified by a surging (if somewhat graphic) imagination. PERSONAL I love family, cooking, good company, banter, sport, fun, and an occasional drop of 'The Cratur'. I live in the beautiful East Neuk of Fife, Scotland. POETRY AND ALL THAT Writing is part of me. It took me many years to admit I'm a poet. Could it be a man thing? My efforts started in childhood, ebbing and flowing until the present day. It seems I'm approaching 180 blogs ... can I be that old? ARTICLES AND STUFF With many articles published, often on business, some commissioned and the human side of work, I changed direction a few years back. Tired of the dry-stuff, my muse hauled me into writing fiction, non-fiction and poetry. As an author who aims to entertain, I'm eager for feedback. Your views on any aspect of my work are important to me. Please do get in touch. I am the founding Chair the Colinsburgh Galloway Library Trust in the East Neuk of Fife, Scotland.
