About Me
About me
Well, where do we start? I retired at 51 and soon realised that I couldn't stand being in my wifes company, so I packed my bags and left. I now live alone in a beautiful part of England.
I used to write poems for my kids but never saved any of them, a couple of years ago my daughter asked me if I remembered a particular one, which, surprise surprise, I did. After writing that one down I got the idea for another and I have been doing so ever since. most of what I write is from my day to day experiences, overheard conversations and funny situations etc. Oh and I'm a bit of a speed freak, I've got a couple of bikes and I drive a bloody gorgeous S Type Jag.
When Neo was off air for that long period I got a book published, it's called "Hidden Shallows" by John W Fenn and it's for sale on Amazon. http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb_noss/280-8082560-3250512?url=search…
