About me

I am developing a new (2012) imprint of John Hunt Publishing, called Top Hat Books. I’m a lifelong fan of historical fiction and a freelance writer of short fiction and non-fiction, and hope to publish a broad range of historical fiction from around the world.

I’m also a historical re-enactor, and a Managing Editor for a US ebook company.
