I worked for many years as a programmer in some computer installations and taught programming for some years. I love reading history and maritime fiction about English, Scottish, Roman, Egyptian, Assyrian, Persian, and more ancient civilizations.
I love the works of Nigel Tranter. C.S. Forester, Bernard Cornwell, S.J.A. Turney, H.A. Culley, Alexander Kent, Griff Hosker, Wilbur Smith, and more.
After many years I decided to return to an early passion, writing.The idea of the Amazing Flying Belt was in my head for many years.
