Profile
City: Brighton And Hove
Country: United Kingdom
I work as a Tutor for the Open University and am alsoa writer and artist living in Hove in Sussex. All my work has, i would say the object of encouraging people to think and work out their own path in life. I have published two novels and abook of short stories see www.authorhouse.co.uk
I also write poetry – my art tends to have a leaning toward surrealism and an attempt to see below the surface of things and to get people thinking
I am actively involved in helping people in prison and am currently writing a book about this
On my page I am also exhibiting work by Peter Hakala who is one of my prisoners and has a group on Facebook – Peter welcomes correspondence and if you would like to write to him he is at
