Hello Steemians:
Although I do a lot of writing, trying to say a few words about myself is difficult.
I live in Vancouver, British Columbia in Canada, but I was born in Leicester in the UK. I attended school in Yorkshire and university in Liverpool.
I have been to 93 countries and territories including the Western Caribbean and Scotland in 2014, The Balkans and Armenia in 2015, France and Slovakia in 2016, and Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Greece in 2017.
My sense of humour is distilled from The Goons, Monty Python, Fawlty Towers, and Midsomer Murders.
I love being creative in my writing and I love writing about travelling. My latest books are about 40 animals evolution avoided (in other words fictional animals that might exist in a parallel universe), two murder/mystery novels, and two short books about travelling, one about Northern Ireland / Scotland and one about the Greek Islands. Details can be found here - https://www.amazon.com/-/e/B00DR300NY
Besides travelling and writing, I enjoy public speaking, photography, and watching films in a cinema. I also read a lot about topics such as The Holy Grail, Heresies, and History. I also read Terry Pratchett novels. Anyway, I don't want this introduction to turn into War and Peace, so I will stop here.

Holy cow! 93 countries and territories is impressive. I'm very interested in reading about folks travel so I welcome your content with great enthusiasm. I'm personally pretty terrible at telling a story, but I'm working to improve but have great respect for those who are avid writers. Welcome here and I look forward to your content.
Thanks Captain Bob - I've written some posts already, but then I realised I hadn't introduced myself to the community, hence the late introduction.
Hello Julian and Welcome! I hope you will enjoy it here.
Thanks Helena.
A BIG warm welcome to Steemit! I am sure you are going to absolutely enjoy the Steemit platform.👍 Please let me know if I can be of future help with Steemit. I truly hope Steemit exceeds all your expectations!👍
Well, David, perhaps you can help me understand how certain people get $325 for their first post and I got 2 cents! I just don't understand how that can happen - are there better parts of the day to post than others.
Thank You for your question. I have just checked your Steem wallet and it shows Steem power of 35.404 STEEM. Steem power is one factor, replies, and your rep rank is 46 which is fine. Be sure to be active daily of Steemit and your payouts will increase. I have just followed you on steemit so we can earn steem together. Have a great night 👍
