...and I am the creator of the Rudi and Raven Series for teens and young adults, the Daydreamers Storytelling Course for 10-13 year olds, and the Elementals Creative Writing course for high school people. I live in Durbanville, near Cape Town in South Africa with my two children, artist wife Lee-Anne (who illustrates my books), a dog named Rosy, a cat named Reginald, a hamster named Pip, and various fish of various names. I also write short stories for mature audiences to make sense of my own world.
