Author and eccentric

Dominated by horses and ships, 400 years in the future looks like 200 years in the past. School friends NutJob, KristalClear and MaxChaos grow up in a world with no oil, no cars and no internet.

Helped by the local community, they are making plans with HayWire, BarmyWaffle and TedTalker to counter the pirates from WorringFolk, aiming to stop them from disrupting trade on the Irish Sea.

Demi-real demi-dystopia with easy-going juvenile humour!

#writersCoffeeClub 6 Apr 'convergence'

#Lancaster #IsleOfMan #LakeDistrict 2451AD

Everything across the 6 novels converges to a single point, the overthrow of the bad guys!

Each novel is a stand alone in its own right, converges on a significant milestone.

I’m writing for teenagers, and feel they need to see predictability and reward, among all the tension building and release.

Even the reformed bad guy, gets happy contented grandchildren.

#Wordweavers 5 Apr 'character reaction'

It's an annual tradition.

If Mr Collins hadn't been invited to the pyjama party he would have been confused.

Who else can they get who has outer space pyjamas?

And his Teddy Bear would have been throughly dejected.

Leave him alone and he’ll leave you alone, but if … <a href="https://www.slenderwolf.com/novels/characters/angrybard/" class="more-link">Continue reading<span class="screen-reader-text"> "AngryBard"</span></a>
