I've always loved writing, I've done it all my life. It was what I really wanted to do but I kind of stumbled into other things, like showing off on stage and eventually working on TV.

I live in the Cotswolds, I am married to novelist Judy Pascoe, we have two children although they are quite big, I used to write in a shed, but now I write in an outhouse covered in solar panels.
I drive an electric car and try not to worry about the future. I also grow vegetables and look after my chickens.
