As an artist blacksmith I was keen to write about the blacksmith's craft, but as there are so many blacksmithing manuals I decided to produce a photographic record of my metal sculpture and artistic ironwork rather than a beginners blacksmithing book.
I have also written many short stories as well as two children's illustrated stories with stunning images by Mike Kelly. The stories centre on the lives of birds native to the British Isles and they are in the form of epic poems, with appeal for children and adults. Visit my Amazon Author Page here.
