I landed on Earth half a century ago and have been unable to escape the planet ever since without my wife’s permission or my imagination.
Arriving as a wet, screaming bundle of joy in 1970’s London, I morphed into human adulthood as an ocean scientist, spending much of my existence in the Netherlands – a country nearly as famous as Atlantis for lying largely below sea level.
Personal
I live in the Netherlands with my wife and two daughters. In my free time I enjoy walks in nature with my family and exploring the depths of space with my telescope.
Science fiction fascinates me because it explores the “What if?” question, but I also enjoy reading humour. My family conspires to keep me busy; if there’s any time left, I write short stories. One of them, A Slice of Earth, won a reader-voted competition! Millie is more ocean-based – a short story about a mermaid who’s environmentally threatened. I’m preparing my other stories for an e-book – so stand by!
