Bio
I am the fourth generation in my family to become a published author, my maternal grandfather, Bernard Capes, and Bernard's son Renalt and uncle John, preceding me.
My own writing began in secondary school, and extended into comedy sketches and lyrics for the stage in my early twenties. Later I found himself writing for the Education Department, and, after going into private practice, writing reports, proposals, and scripts for training videos and some television commercials.
The catalyst for fiction writing was a story a colleague told me one day about a bunch of kids riding home on the back of a huge horse, which insisted on walking through a dam!
This led to my first book, Scratcher (1987), published by Heinemann.
Since then I havewritten and self-published Lissie Pendle, The Search for Quong, Ranga Plays Australia, The Day and Night Machine, Possum and Python, Twevven and the big bigger biggest baby burp, and Twevven in a very dangerous situation for children and, for adults, Thomas Bulford’s English Companion, Thomas Bulford’s Essays on Life, Language & Love, Ranga Plays Australia, and The Alone Man.
