In addition to writing extensively on country craft and mind, body and spirit matters my career has included ten years as contributing editor of The New Writer, 10 years as commissioning editor for ignotus press, and author of over 20 books on metaphysics, self-help, country and folk-lore, including two novels. I have regularly contributed to a variety of magazines as diverse as The Lady, Prediction, The Countryman and the Funeral Director's Journal, while providing a regular column for several other publications. Also ghost-written eight books on spiritual and self-help matters, plus the autobiography of a leading sports personality, which was nominated for the William Hill Sports Book of the Year Award in 2006. I am currently commissioning editor for Compass Books, the writers' resource imprint of O-Books.
