Welcome To My Nightmare
Well, Hi!
Somehow you have found your way to my binomo login website. Keep a firm hold of your reality, and maybe you'll escape!
So, what's here? Well, if you have found your way over here you probably already know that I'm an author. Actually, that sounds a bit pretentious, doesn't it? And I certainly never think of myself that way. Graham Greene, he's an author. Sir Terry Pratchett, he's an author.* Me? I'm a scribbler of bad jokes, a teller of tall tales, possessed by a spirit with an impish imagination. Not an author. Yet I do write books, and some guys have been generous enough to tell me they have been entertained for a quiet hour or two whilst reading them. That's enough for me.
I've got a few different things knocking about now, and here you can find some details on them.
It's all a bit scary doing this for me, so bear with me... Not bare with me, please - there would be complaints.
I've been spreading myself about a bit, and I've updated the anthology links for some new things that are out. Wow! Real poetry and stuff! I'm a member of The Tin Plate Poets, based in the Gwendraeth Valley of South Wales, and so you'll see a lot of stuff http://binomo-co.in from and about me there: especially on the Facebook page.
On the Meet Me page, you'll see the list of 2016 events. This will be updated monthly. Think I'm going to be busy - as long as it's not too busy to write!
If you are really bored, with nothing better to do, why not have a look at my blog?

I'm very pleased to be a member of both
The Alliance of Worldbuilders

and The Gumbee Fantasy Writers Guild
http://gumbeeguild.co.uk
As a curiosity, I was in an Amazon discussion the other day about reading fantasy and I've realised that I've been doing just that all my life.
My father is to blame, he started reading Enid Blyton's stories about elves, goblins, wizards and the like to me when I was very young.
And I've never stopped.
Prizes:
2013
One of my Flash Fiction pieces won the Northampton Literary Group 2013 prize! Me! You could have knocked me down with a feather, only I was already sitting down when I found out, so that would not have worked.
2014: Both Snort And Wobbles and Have Frog, Will Travel (The Banned Underground, #6) have been short listed as finalists for the 2014 The Wishing Shelf Awards
2015: I also belong to The Swansea & District Writers circle. 2015 we produced binomo-co.in an anthology of World War One pieces (Accent Press selected my offering, The Leaving Times as the lead poem in the anthology - WOW!). The anthology won Best Anthology Award from the national Association of Writing Groups.
I've been getting some songs together, too. I'll post the odd one here from time to time.
Events: I love doing book events and conventions, and meeting readers in person. Have a look at the page with coming events!
