A web designer and programmer by day, with stories published in various places since 2007 + a member of Redwell Writers (Norwich UK) since 2006.

After a recommendation to use Wattpad by @SimonKJones, I serialised a couple of novels here to see how it went. Splinters, a science fiction story based on the Earth and Moon, and Time Portals of Norwich, a fantasy based in my home city, which made the research easier! Please note that only the first few chapters of both novels are now available here on Wattpad. To buy a paperback or download the ebook please see my publishing website: www.vivadjinn.com

Time's Revenge, the sequel to Time Portals of Norwich, is now in print and I am working on the third in the series.

Wisdom of the Ancients, my submission for Wattpad and NationalGeographic's #PlanetOrPlastic competition reached the final 10 submissions in early 2019 but, since then, hit the number 1 spot in Wattpad's Science Fiction category in May 2020 and, at the time of writing, is usually in the top 5.

I sometimes submit stories to Wattpad's Science Fiction Ambassadors: https://www.wattpad.com/user/ScienceFiction
Winning stories so far include: Sunset (January 2020) and Sometimes, Spheres Don't Come Back (April 2022)

Read requests: Please DON'T ask me for read requests out of the blue! I won't do it. If you want me to read YOUR stories then please read, comment and vote on at least one of mine first. Under NO CIRCUMSTANCES should you just put a link to one of your stories as a comment on anyone else's stories unless you've been asked to do so by the author of that story - it's just bad etiquette. For more guidance please read this article first: https://www.wattpad.com/107253675-writing-and-wattpadding-a-guide-wattpad-etiquette
