J.W. Ironmonger

I'm the author of 'Not Forgetting the Whale', (also called 'The Whale at the End of the World',) 'The many Lives of Heloise Starchild,' The Coincidence Authority,' ('Coincidence' in the USA), and 'The Notable Brain of Maximilian Ponder.'

I'm a Cornishman who was born in Kenya, schooled in Kent, studied in Nottingham and Liverpool, and worked in Nigeria, Slough, Manchester, Edinburgh, Warrington, Warwick and Glasgow. Now I live in Parkgate on the Wirral peninsula overlooking the RSPB marshes.

My lovely wife Sue and I are possibly the only non Indonesians ever to have seen a Javan rhino and her calf. True. You can read about it on my blog at http://notablebrain.blogspot.co.uk/20...

Apart from my family and my writing, my third passion is travel. I've been posting some of my random map pins on my blog. You can follow my blog here: https://notablebrain.blogspot.com/
