Author bio:
I have decided to take a sabbatical this year, as my heart isn't in it. Better to edit the unfinished stuff, I think.
I dropped out of school in the Sixties, did various 'on the road' jobs while travelling (fairground, archaeology, street performer) - which led to teaching circus skills, working on film puppets (most notoriously, Jabba in ROTJ) and finally performing and touring with NoFit State Circus - with whom I still have close ties.
Turning 50, and moving out of crazy London, I got my first 'proper job' at Cardiff Libraries, and now assist staff and public in the effective use of computers and the Internet.
Just to manifest hard copies, I published my first two NaNoWriMo books, "Foolproof" and "Infinite Monkeys" on Lulu, without (I regret to say) re-writing them very much, but completed them with covers from the briliant Bobby Campbell..
I have a couple more, written in 2009 and 2010, that I occasionally work on editing...Sigh. I also did a Script Frenzy film script in 2009.
