He found success as a journalist, having more than fifty features published in various magazines and newspapers, including 'The Guardian', 'The Independent', 'New Woman' and 'Outlook' covering a wide range of topics such as true crime, jazz, mainstream pop, alternative rock, science fiction, health and film theory. He is the author of several published books, mainly rock-related biographies, including: 'Nirvana', 'Nine Inch Nails', Nick Cave, Henry Rollins, 'Suede' and... Celine Dion(!).

His first novel 'Scraps' is published by Questing Beast Books and a novelette, 'Final Bough' is presented by Sutekh's Gift.
