I have been a photographer for many years; it is my livelihood. Along with writing short stories (The Isolation Sex Stories, The Eight of Swords, & The Putsi), I also design and publish notebooks and journals. I write about how I work as a photographer and indie writer/publisher—the process, the challenges, the pitfalls, and the triumphs.

If you are interested in photography, writing fiction, and self-publishing, hopefully you will be inspired by my articles.

I live by the River Wensum in Norwich; look out for my Tales from the Riverbank: daily observations, romantic imaginings, characters, wildlife, and happenings.

My writing includes some of my life experiences and observations.

I am more outward-looking than inward-looking, I think! Therefore, I am fascinated to read the experiences of others. This is one of the primary reasons I write here on Medium. I love the diversity of information, and it is such a great way to connect with people from all over the world.

I look forward to meeting you and reading your stories.
