About me

I was a reader long before I started to write, and never considered putting pen to paper – or fingers to keyboard – until I found myself with a lot of time on my hands due to illness. Writing and publishing gave me a new purpose and a real sense of achievement.

I now find myself working in three or four different genres, and loving every minute. (Although there may be times during the editing process, when my general demeanour might lead a neutral observer to question whether I love it all the time.)

For my previous books, I’ve published under a different pen name, but I’ve chosen Alex J Markson for most of my writing going forward.

You can read more about my upcoming publications on the ‘Books’ page.

And if you really want to know about the real me, then you can find more on the ‘Alter ego’ page.
