I am a 39 year old single father of five children 1 girl and 4 boys. I am fairly new to blogging and writing in general, but I really hope that I can make a small part-time living writing short fiction. I am am into allsorts of music, mainly Clubland though. As well as music I like reading and watching psychological thrillers and horror.
Have been single since my wife walked out in April, and to begin with I was distraught as you would expect. However over time things have got easier, and now I feel as if I have finally broken the chains and am ready for a fresh start. Writing has a lot to do with my new found optimism, being able to express myself with words, whether fictional, observational or just a good old rant and moan.
I can honestly say that I am glad I have found somewhere for my writing, and just hope people enjoy reading as much as I enjoy writing. Over time I hope people will be able to encourage me with comments and criticism and guide me to bigger and better writings.
