Biography
Educated at the Hill School in Nuwara Eliya before completing my secondary education at Glenalmond School in Scotland, then on to Cambridge University before joining the Royal Navy. Why the navy? Simple. From the day I started diving as a 16-year-old in Trincomalee, I wanted to be a diver and, when it comes to the business of military diving, the Royal Navy was the best.
Migrated to Australia with my wife and three sons in 1983 by transferring to the Royal Australian Navy (best decision I ever made) before moving into a new career in corporate finance in 1988. Retired from what was a stressful if well paid business in 2003. Now I write military science fiction in between diving, which is - after my wife, my three boys, and my two granddaughters - my greatest passion.
Why write sci-fi? Well, living next door to Arthur C. Clarke in Colombo had a lot to do with that. The first SF book I ever read - thanks Mum - was his "Fall of Moondust". It captured my imagination in a way no other book ever has. Thanks to that book, I still look to the stars and will write SF for so long as I can.
