book reviews

From time to time, I write reviews of novels (including kids) and general non-fiction books for the bookseller.co.nz blog (click on the book cover to read the review). If you would like me to review your books, then please get in touch and I will consider it. To be eligible, the book has to be available in New Zealand bookstores and most importantly, the press release has to appeal to me.

freelance writing

Together with Darryl Torckler I have written features articles for various newspapers and magazines. Mostly travel articles, and typically about places we have been diving. Some are available online, you can a selection of them here.

scientific writing

Scientists, like me, spend a lot of their time writing up their research findings. These are often published in professional journals or textbooks. I have co-authored over 100 scientific papers and book chapters.
