Growing up in Sheffield (UK) surrounded by the prejudice of the time and with his strong northern Yorkshire accent, he was unable to attend University and instead completed an engineering apprenticeship. Turning back to college in his late 30s, he completed an English Literature and Linguistics (Hons) degree from the University of Sheffield. Moving to New England (Worcester Massachusetts) he furthered his education at the renowned Clark University and received his Master’s degree in 1996. Retired since 2017, he now spends his time reading, writing, and traveling with his wife.view less
