Henry James once observed, “It takes a great deal of history to produce a little literature.” That sentiment perfectly captures my own approach to writing. From an early age, I have been deeply passionate about reading, storytelling, and, above all, history.

In 2020, during the challenging months of the COVID-19 pandemic, I completed my first manuscript. After much perseverance, The Eagle & The Dove was published in June 2023. The following year, I self-published my second novel, The Professor and I, on Amazon Kindle.

Alongside my novels, I also enjoy writing short stories. Since 2023, I have been an active member of a local writers’ group, and in June 2024, I was delighted to have one of my stories featured in the group’s anthology, Saxon Shore.

I am currently working on my third novel, which I aim to publish in late 2026.
