About PeteCookJones-Writer

 

 

Bio:

I've been living in North Somerset since 2000, where I met my now wife Pauline. I'd just returned from 12 years living in France, where I was the frontman with a Bluegrass band, playing guitar, mandolin, and vocalist. I am a fully qualified (retired) cabinet maker and joiner, and enjoyed over 40 years of working in the UK and Europe, before taking up a position as a college lecturer., teaching construction. I then went on to get my TEFL certification which I used to teach Asian students English.

These days I spend either writing or in my leather workshop, where I make a variety of goods for craft markets. I have published 3 books on Amazon, a childrens picture book, a well-being journal, and a book of short stories. I enjoy going to writing retreats and joined a local writers group, as mentioned on my welcome page.
