I have written seven tragi-comic novels, most of which have proved to be, in the short term, deeply unpopular. For the handful of readers on Amazon who have read and enjoyed my books, this record must be quite astonishing. My first break came when I was 36, from David Almond, of Skellig fame, who published a short story of mine in a Northern Arts Magazine. Then Alan Ross of London Magazine published a long short story in a hardback anthology from Constable. This anthology was reviewed in the Times Literary Supplement by Booker nominee Shena Mackay, who described my writing as "bleak but impressive". For as long as I live, I will be in her debt for that moment of recognition. Let the titles speak for themselves: The Graffiti Killer, The Ghost of Neil Diamond, The Pathology of Graphology, The Whores of Coxcomb Hall (under a pseudonym, because I was living quietly in the Middle East at the time), An English Airman Foresees his Death, Way of the Infidel and - first, last, but by no means least - To Have Nothing.
