About me:
Born in Birmingham, UK, I am an author and researcher on the subjects of ancient sacred places, prehistoric megalithic sites, and supernatural folklore. I also write fiction influenced by the supernatural and uncanny. I am a graduate of Nottingham (B.A. in Archaeology) and Birmingham (M. Phil in Greek Archaeology) Universities, and have worked on archaeological projects in England and Greece.
I have written on the subjects of archaeology, ancient mysteries, human enigmas and the supernatural for various print and internet publications, my first book 'Hidden History: Lost Civilizations, Secret Knowledge, and Ancient Mysteries' was published in January 2007, and has been translated into nine languages (including Thai!). My second, 'Haunted Spaces, Sacred Places' was published in July 2008, and my latest - 'The Lore of the Ghost' is due in September.
My research into the Princess Caraboo hoax has been used by the B.B.C. on a number of occasions. My work has been published on various websites including the B.B.Cs Legacies website, World Mysteries and the Book of Thoth, and in magazines across the world including New Dawn Magazine, Awareness, All Destiny and the UKs Paranormal Magazine. I am a member of the Folklore Society (England) and serve as a consultant for U.K-based research and investigative organization Parasearch. I long ago fell for the lure of the ancient and the supernatural, initially inspired by visiting the Neolithic chambered tombs of the Cotswolds and archaeological sites on Crete, and by reading the ghost stories of Sheridan Le Fanu and M.R. James.
