I am a former entrepreneur and inventor having been the first to create video on Internet TV in 1995. I have recently published a book of my memoirs 'Mr Internet TV the Ego and the Id' which tells the never before told story of the invention of streaming Internet TV and my battles with giants of the PC world to find my place in Internet history. One which incurred big personal challenges to myself and family both financially and in the need to retain self identity and sanity. Being a memoir it covers 60 years of my career in media from ads to movie making to video to the Internet. It is also a story of love lost and found and as such crosses a number of genre categories from business, technology, the entertainment world, to high society, royalty and politics across several continents. The Self Publishing Review described it as a "breathless spin through an unbelievable life in a tale of ambition, hedonism and evolution" "told with wry shoulder shrugging wit".
In my sixties I retired to find a place in the sun and to write on subjects I love. History mysteries were my first choice and in 2016 I published 'The Royal Secret'. It is my first novel and has received many excellent reviews to date. It brings the past to the future in its tale of a modern day American woman; Mrs G, who seeks the truth of the suspicious death of her bio-chemist husband after his discovery of a chemical formula which can save the world from deadly pandemics. In her search she comes across Francis Bacon, a famous scientist and writer of plays from the distant past, uncovering a tale of conspiracy and the occult which aids her quest. Their lives run parallel as both seek the truths of life and personal existence while their time runs out against powerful satanic forces who seek to seize their knowledge to control the world.
