I have been writing since I was 15, but have spent a great deal of my life telling other people's stories, as a television documentary film editor. Now 69, with my wife, three children and three grandchildren, my family comes first, and then I have time for writing and making my own films. Influenced by my father, Oliver, who was a landscape painter, I make landscape films - also films about disability, living with dementia, and so on. I have written two autobiographies, three collections of poetry and am now writing about filmmaking. Take a look at my website.
