The author about himself
I’ve been writing since I was six years old. Of course, I didn’t have anything published when I was six (aside from on the blackboard at home) but over time I’ve had short stories, articles and book reviews published in magazines, newspapers, anthologies, e-newsletters and websites.
I received a join Editors Award from the ZineWest 2014 anthology, received a Special Commendation in the 2010 Scarlet Stiletto Awards, won the Innovation category of the 2009 Scarlet Stiletto Awards and received a Highly Commended Certificate in the 2004 Katharine Susannah Prichard Sci-Fi/Fantasy Awards. I have an MA in Professional Writing, a Graduate Diploma in Journalism and a Bachelor of Science (Computing) degree with distinction. I’ve been using computers since the mid-80s (remember the Commodore Vic-20, anyone?) and been using the Internet since 1994. I also run The Best of Times short story competition twice a year.
