Who I am

I'm a writer who has so far published a collection of short stories, four novels and an anthology or two. (Read a current list of publications)

I've lived in Toronto, Canada since 1977, but spent most of my first 16 years in the Caribbean, where I was born.

If you would like to contact me, you can send me an email. I generally can't find time to enter into long correspondences, but I'll try to answer any questions you might have. If you email me once and you don't hear back, chances are I've simply forgotten, or I'm up to my ears in work. I have a learning disability which can make my memory really quirky, so don't be shy to remind me.

Alternately, you might get in touch with my agent, Don Maass:
