I write the adventures I no longer have.

Suspend disbelief - Have an adventure!

I mostly write about military and para-military forces. That’s what I did for most of my youth. I was a soldier until wounded on an overseas mission, so now I write. There is no subtext in my novels, it’s all about a good, fun read.

Comedy & Fiction Descriptions

I write Speculative Fiction and Comedy

I mostly write science fiction about military or para-military forces, some fantasy, and occasionally humour pieces. I'm Canadian; we spell things a little differently here.

Sue and the Booh

Sue Sheffield was a budding psychologist, right out of school and ready to help people with their problems. She advised Bradley to get in touch with his emotions and not hide from them. After the massacre, Sue didn’t have the heart to help people anymore. She became a baker, and with her emotional support cat had a mediocre life. One day her friend asked her to fill in as head baker at a High Commission dinner. When the bodies start dropping and the building goes into lockdown, it’s up to Sue and her cat to solve things. Everyone else is a suspect.

Coming Soon

Jake & Chearice: Imposter

No mission, no matter, nothing, will stop Jake and Chearice from tying the knot. Their schedules are clear, there is nothing on the horizon, and the Omni-Verse is quiet. It’s the perfect time for a wedding, only, nobody consulted the Omni-Verse on its schedule or invited it to the event. That is a problem with weddings, there are always crashers, and, time for just one more mission.

Skip all this, let me buy some books:
