About Martin

 I’m no longer an ex-pat Brit, now back in Blighty from NZ, divorced father of two inspiring sons, mental nurse. INTP. Mad about Notts County, Prog Rock, anything guitar and the Great Outdoors. Books, maps and cinema. And real ale. And redheads. And…well perhaps that’s enough!

I’ve completed four novels, three set in a post-apocalyptic Britain and one fantasy novel. And my first collection of short stories. They’re all available on Amazon as e-books.

My stories are the canvas on which I explore these themes; true manhood, true leadership, honour, integrity, the search for truth, the nature and exercise of power, how societies develop, work, don’t work, crumble and collapse, how economies really work, the battle of the sexes, mental illness and disorders…

I’m hoping enough readers enjoy, are inspired by and support my work that one day I can go fulltime, hopefully before the ground floor of mental health nursing is crushed. That will happen when the immense weight of floors and floors of managers, empire builders, frauds, parasites and assorted muppets above collapses on top of us.
