ABOUT ME

Hi!​

 

    

 

I live in Glasgow, Scotland and write short stories, novels and plays in a number of genres.

 

Longlisted and subsequently shortlisted in 2015 for BBC Radio 4 'Opening Lines.'

 

 

 

Many of my short stories are humorous and cat-related but some just find their humour or take their themes from the ordinary events of everyday life. 

 

​

 

I've ten books of Short stories currently available for kindle and kindle apps. on Amazon. They are, The Cat's Whiskers, Herding Cats, 

 

A Gallimaufry of Short stories, 'I'm Just The Cat' and other Stories, Inside Stories, Folk Tales,  Strands of Time, Flash Fiction and Tricks of the Trade. These ten books of short stories are also available as paperbacks.

 

 

 

I also have two plays for stage published in one book. It is called Two Plays for Stage!

 

 

 

Seven of my books are available as audio books; two I have narrated and produced myself. The other five are professionally narrated and produced. These are avilable via Amazon, Audible and iTunes.

 


Most of the inspiration for my writing comes from the natural environment and a love of British history and culture.

I studied Creative Writing with the Open University in the UK and have been writing fiction for over ten years. For over thirty years I worked as a lecturer in Scotland.

I'm presently editing two full-length novels. One of these novels is to be published in 2016.  I am also currently recording, on my RODE studio quality microphone, a large collection of Cumberland dialect poems and stories. (Check out some free samples on my News page using CDBABY player).

News about some of my writing and other musings can occasionally be found on Twitter @CJFG2
on Facebook and on my Blog
