Trouble for Doc Y

Beschreibung

Hi. I'm Tony. Bea (my girl cousin) and I are agents - Troubleshooters - of the Galactic Federation. When we found an old guy, Dr Yeaman, wandering on a cold, dark, uninhabited planet, he led us to a remote cottage in Scotland, where the eccentric Professor White was - or wasn't - doing weird experiments.

Autor

I retired (early) and started a new career as a writer. I wrote short stories and articles. Some were published; some won prizes; some sank without trace. Having heard my stories, two friends suggested I should write for children. I'd never thought of that, although I'd spent my first career communicating with young people - as a Chemistry teacher, and running clubs for badminton, chess, table tennis and hillwalking. I tried writing for young people - and I loved it. It became my main occupation. I sent samples to publishers. One asked to see a complete story. In excitement, I sent it off. Then nothing. After four months, I rang, and was told the manuscript was being considered: I would be notified. Then more nothing. Now, after eight years, I no longer rush to the door when the letter box rattles. But I kept writing the stories because I enjoyed it so much. Until, in late 2013, I learned I could publish my stories and games as e-books. Since then, I've been polishing and issuing some of them. I hope everyone enjoys reading them as much as I enjoyed writing them. Check out the series: C: Charades - party game - a new twist to the traditional game. D: Diagags - party game - gags written as plays for two people. M: My Story - novels - classical stories, told by the heroes. O: One-Offs - party game - guess the titles, not quite the classical ones. P: Pop Tales - short stories - inspired by 60s and 70s hit songs. Q: Quote-Outs - word games - can you deduce the missing words? S: Inside Story - novels - a boy's adventures inside classical stories. T: Troubleshooters - novels - space adventures for young people.
