About

Me in 3: passionate, curious, creative. 

In my daytime I'm the Chief Creative Officer in one of the biggest online gaming companies in the world leading a team of 15 in coming up with branding and campaign concepts. 

My free time I like to spend with my family, Lenah and Aiden. We live in a townhouse in Sliema, Malta where the sun always (almost) shines. I also enjoy tennis a lot and after a match I like to relax with some red wine and good food.

I have finished my first novel The Wake-Up Call, which you can get through the Amazon Kindle store or iBookstore, Smashwords, Nook, and others, and I'm currently hard at work on the second one.

I'm a designer and I picked this book up because I thought the cover was appealing. Yeah, it works like that for ebooks as well :) But only a few pages in I was hooked by this Jack guy. It's like being inside his head. And a very entertaining head it is! <br /><br />The book is a fast and easy read, there are not too many characters to keep track of and the action unfolds very much like in a movie. You won't find a lot of description but instead some punchy and humorous dialogue, which I really liked. There's some unexpected twists and turns to the story that keeps you on your toes and you're never really sure what's going to happen next. <br /><br />To summarize The Wake-Up Call really has it all - you laugh, you're moved and most of all you're entertained. The only bad thing I can say about is that it ends too soon. So I'll just hope the author writes another book soon! <br /><br />Recommended!</div>
