In 1986 my father and I collaborated and won a Dishonorable Mention in the infamous Bulwer-Lytton fiction contest - thus you may completely put your mind at ease when perusing these erudite works.
I can pull up that winning sentence if you like, but more samples of my work can be found here under ‘Writing’, in the Cuckoo Play, and on Pies of the West.
Enjoy and explore!
