Jack's uncompromising therapist is Doc Nyodai who was a nun at the Seigan-ji temple in Kyoto before training as a psychoanalyst in Vienna. Doc N has a black belt in naginata-do, enjoys golden age comics and is an award winning breeder of Lhaso Apso dogs. She uses her knowledge for the good of humanity - with a ten percent discount for desperate writers .

 

​It was Doc N who suggested Jack start writing novels and short stories as part of his therapy. She explained it would release a stream of consciousness, enabling him to take that first, vital step on the path to Englightenment.

​

Jack’s fiction is a mash up of different genres that often revolve around disparate characters who find themselves in extraordinary or absurd adventures. Drawing on his love of reading – authors T. H. White and Douglas Adams are particular favourites of his – Jack is now writing full time.   

 

Jack:

Yep, my books are definitely about the weird stuff that keeps me up at night
