After growing up in Essex I moved to France in 1976. I have been living and working in and around Paris for more than half my life. My wife and I run a small business providing language translation services to industry. We have two grown up children.

For me, writing is an absorbing if frustrating hobby. Your enjoyment is my reward so if you like a story here please feel free to give it a thumbs up and share it.
