Cardiff born and bred. To quote Cerys Matthews — every day when I wake up, I thank the Lord I'm Welsh.
I write character-driven fiction. Stories about ordinary people carrying more than they let on, set in places that feel lived-in and real. I'm drawn to the quiet drama of everyday life — the things people say, and more often, the things they don't.
My influences are the writers I return to — Graham Greene, Alan Sillitoe, George Orwell, Martin Amis. Kitchen sink realism with something darker underneath. I also have a soft spot for the wonderfully obscure Arthur La Bern.
I've published four books to date — Abby & Me, Chasing Tigers, Broken Cages, and the short story collection Spare Parts. My fifth, The Mijas Cowboy, is a literary fiction novel due October 2026.
Away from the page I love Cardiff City, punk rock, guitars, Scorsese, The Big Lebowski, and a good curry.
I'm also one half of songwriting duo Breezbear — find us on Spotify if you're curious.
