Author. Storyteller. Seeker.
I am (in alphabetical order) an artist, autistic, a carpenter, cricketer, grandfather, historian, photographer, retired clergyman, small boat owner, and, of course, a writer.
I have written much over my lifetime; for a start, I have written, and then preached, over two thousand sermons. I have often been asked to publish an anthology of the best of them, but so far I have refused – they need to be heard, not read.
My first published book (some twenty-five years ago) was the biography of Sarah Mallet, an eighteenth-century female preacher (a pioneer at a time when women were generally banned from the pulpit). She came to know John Wesley, who referred to her in his letters as ‘My Dear Sally’. This is also the title of my book, which is still available on Amazon
I have also written a comic novel, ‘The Sacred Diary of a Victorian Churchman’, books on family history and several children’s books. Some of these are also available on Amazon.
