About me

Gender	Male
Industry	Arts
Occupation	Writer/Editor
Location	Sydney, NSW, Australia
Introduction	I grew up in a small town and after many years travelling, now live in Sydney. I work in television and have made short films which have screened internationally. I have had many stories and poems published, all over the world. My first book was the novella, Bottomless River (2012), the second, a poetry collection Caged Without Walls (2013) both through Ginninderra Press. My seven (as yet unpublished) novels in reverse order. I, Narcissist: The self obsessed in extremes. Tru Luv Kills: When two teens fall in love, the outcome is murder. Ode to Dead Young Friends: A Memoir of four young people whose time came too soon. R.I.P. Rest In Prime: An aging population has placed a burden on society. There's only one solution. Oblivion City and Oblivion Terminus: Is it the end of civilization? A young adult dystopian nightmare. Borders of Bordavia: A children's fantasy. Think Junior Lord of the Rings. Copyright: Anthony J.

Have educated myself on the literary classics.. I like Tolstoy & Dostoevsky.. but not Joyce. Each to their own.
