I am a Brummie living in Northampton who loves to write but gets distracted with other things. I enjoy horror/fantasy and anything that provokes original thought.

My literary heroes are Clive Barker, Stephen King, Edgar Allan Poe and HP Lovecraft. Everyone should read George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-four .

I have work published by AlienBuddha Press, Loft Books, BlackBough Poems, DarkWinter Literary Magazine and Paragraph Planet.

A trip to the theatre

Posted on Wed, 15 Dec 2021

A trip to the theatre nowadays doesn't have quite the same opulence about the whole thing. It looked very grandiose back then. Interesting, as always. Paul :)
