I’m a writer based in Hikurangi, north of Whangarei, in New Zealand. I write two regular columns for Northland’s daily newspaper, The Northern Advocate, which also appear regularly in Hawkes Bay Today. My weekly columns can be read online via the New Zealand Herald website here. A selection of my fortnightly weekend columns have been posted on this site (not all as yet).

I also write poetry. The two poetry books I’ve had published, This hill, all it’s about is lifting it to a higher level and Big Love Songs, can be purchased by contacting me.
