In 1966, I was born at home in Oxford, England. My family seemed respectable enough, to the casual eye.<\/p>\n
At the age of four, I realized that I was heterosexual while studying the underwear section of the Kay’s catalogue in a pile of magazines at the back of our garage. That was 1970, when underwear was large, warm and comfortable. I make no apologies for my continuing fascination with real women in proper underwear.<\/p>\n
My formative years were largely wasted by a local school that regarded actual learning and knowledge as a frivolous pursuit.<\/p>\n
Upon escaping school, I travelled the world in every direction, working in every, appalling industry.\u00a0 So far, I have lived as an an illegal immigrant on three different continents, acquiring all\u00a0the\u00a0experience to write genuinely\u00a0sordid\u00a0stories of\u00a0mischief and debauchery observed through\u00a0a panorama of differing cultural perspectives.\u00a0\u00a0 Somewhere along the line I managed to get, “Cogito ergo sum”, tattooed on my penis.\u00a0 To date,\u00a0I’ve only had cause to regret the stupid things that I\u00a0haven’t done.<\/p>\n
I currently have multiple nationalities but nowhere that I could call home.<\/p>\n
My abiding ambition is to get a modest advance on one of my novels so that I can fuck-off and spend the rest of my life vagabonding around the warm parts of Asia, writing very competent, formulaic sequels on a lap-top. Drinking palm-wine and soliciting the local talent. Meeting my agents and publishers at the airport for their tax-deductible missions to drink beer on tropical beaches. Rolling west occasionally to accept awards and do promotional tours.<\/p>\n
It’s a modest ambition.<\/p>\n
Oh, and George Harrison was my favourite Beatle.<\/p>\n
