argentina 78 made me what i am today

About

I have written three novels, two of which have been published by Penguin, Tombstoning (2006) and The Ossians (2008). The third has not. I am writing a fourth. 

I am in a band called Northern Alliance, part of the Fence Collective. We’ve released four albums, and an album as the pretend band The Ossians. 

I live in Portobello, Edinburgh with my wife and two kids.

I love Islay malt whisky.

    Just Finished ‘The Ossians’.

    Unfortunately you never made a penny ‘cos I got it out the local library.

    However as you obviously know, you have a major talent. I’m not going to f’n lecture you but do not blow it away.

    Authors to read:- John Dos Passos & William Kennedy. Unfortunately both American but you will love them, especially Kennedy.

    And by the by, the Tay river allows vessels of 15,000 tons up to the port of Perth. Check it out sunshine!

    Now I’ve been there, seen it and done it before you were born. I am 72 years young and have been waiting for a long while for someone like you.

    If you need any help in anything, contact me.

    yours aye
