About Simon
I am the author of a play, two novels and seven short story collections which have been critically acclaimed, award-nominated and sold to Hollywood. I've taught creative writing to groups and individuals, and edited manuscripts professionally, as well as teaching social work and medical staff the most boring subjects while making them interesting. I specialise in dark supernatural fiction and crime narratives but the methods I teach can be applied to any writing style or genre. I'm keen to share what I know, and keen to learn from you as you hopefully learn from me!
