Born in the Year of the Tiger, Paul’s natural curiosity combined
with the deep-seated feline need to roam has meant that over
the years he’s never been able to call any one place home. His
wanderlust has led him from one town to another, and even
from one country to another.
He has always followed his instincts without question or
complaint, and in true cat fashion it seems he has always
landed on his feet.
“I can’t remember a time when I didn’t write – my father claims
to possess a story I wrote when I was six, which filled 4
standard school exercise books! What I do remember from that
time was being told off for doing the Liverpool Echo crossword
before he got home from work! Perhaps it was the catalyst of
breathing the same air as Hans Christian Andersen. While I
was living in Denmark, I allowed myself to be persuaded to write
for a purpose in-stead of purely for my own amusement.”
Paul has had a short play selected for a performance at the
Edinburgh Fringe Festival and hopes to one day buy a plot of
land (Castle Island on Lough Key, County Roscommon) and
rebuild the castle on said island, which used to belong to my
ancestors.
"Yes, the location of “The Chapel of Her Dreams” is a real
place!"
