What I Like Reading

When I was a child, growing up in Manchester, with only two television channels there was limited choice of what to watch. And so, with a little encouragement from my Uncle Danny, I turned to books and I’ve been an avid reader ever since. Starting with Jack Schaefer’s Shane, my first experience of the classic knight in shining armer. A restless traveler wandering the frontier. This was quickly followed by Orwell’s Animal Farm, and Gerald Durrell’s My Family and Other Animals. In those early days I remember two passions that would stir my emotions, the love of waiting for acquiring the latest record and the same for story books. As I grew into my teenage years I moved on to other classic novels, probably the most impactful to me was The Mayor of Casterbridge, by Thomas Hardy. This was the first thought I had that if I ever decided to write a story then this was how a story should be written.
