He lives with his wife, Sue, in Leicestershire in the UK and has two grown-up children, Christopher and Charlotte, and a charismatic budgie named Alfie.He is a former radio presenter, newsreader and phone-in show host, but always wanted to become a fiction writer -- a dream that came true when his first novella was published in 2012 at the age of 56.
