Autorenporträt
Richard spent the first sixty years of his life preparing to be a fiction writer, and now writes full-time. Born in outback Quorn, South Australia, raised in Adelaide, Richard did all manner of jobs in his early years, including grape picking, talc mining, car assembly, waiting-on, ditch-digging and bar work. In his twenties he decided to pursue a career in the IT industry, based in the UK. He quickly rose up the corporate ranks, managing large organisations on the way, until he gravitated towards international business and variously managed Scandinavia, the Benelux countries, southern Europe, Turkey and the Middle East and Africa, working for American companies, spending most of his time 'in territory' getting to really know and understand various cultures in a way that is not possible as a casual visitor.Richard dealt with 'Oil & Gas', automotive, aerospace and defence, and pharmaceutical clients, generating and closing several major global deals. He learned an enormous amount about how these industries operate, and about the foibles and subtleties of different cultures. In a complete change, Richard returned to Adelaide in the early 2000's, became a student again, and completed his Masters' degree in architecture. He completed a couple of years' internship before sitting the architect registration exams, and then set up his own practice - only to slowly realise that his heart lay instead in writing. Somehow or other, Richard also found time along the way to race formula cars, fly ultralights and scuba dive all over the world. He now spends his time reading, travelling, playing the sax, and most importantly, writing.
