True story: I used to cut up bodies. No, not for fun, you sick bastards – for work. After reaching the age of majority and fleeing the clutches of an overprotective mother, I went to university like a good boy.


More than a decade later and an alphabet soup of letters after my name, I found myself looking down the double-chamber of a microscope at an eyeball. Feeling ironically introspective, I decided that it was time for a change.


Three years and more than two-dozen novels later, I’ve found my true calling, one that also includes letters. Hopefully you see something in my catalog that you like, something to feast your eyes on.
