Van-boy at fifteen to the upper echelons of a multinational, was Nottingham born Daniel's destiny. Home has been Europe, Africa, Latin America, and, barring Antarctica, his feet have trodden every continent. The eloquent authenticity of his writing arises from a lifetime of lived experiences; canoed on the Amazon, 'tea' with Borneo head-hunters, trekked in Death Valley, sales forecast OK'd by a witchdoctor, sailed on Errol Flynn's old sloop, whizzed over the waves in an America's Cup Yacht... An accomplished oil painter, he retired to Norfolk and became an award-winning playwright. Adopting a nom de guerre, he penned, The Silence of the Shaggy Rug.
