Under the Surface
This page collects my thoughts about society. I write fiction with a social conscience which means I like to look under the carpet at the ‘stuff’ we pretend isn't there. I’m not prolific (i.e. annoying) . I prefer that people say - they don’t write a lot, but what they do is worth reading. Sign up to my mailing list to hear when I’ve posted new material.

Given the current polls, the election result is impossible to forecast, but what I can confidently predict is that over 500,000 enrolled New Zealanders will not vote…
Boomers Voted, Zoomers Didn’t
Although I can’t change the past, I can influence the future. If we could interest younger people in politics enough to vote, the result of our democracy could be very different.
