Born in the UK and raised in the south of Spain, Simon emigrated to Australia with his family in 1983. He's a founding member of Andromeda Spaceways Inflight Magazine, and lives in Perth with his wife and two children. His goal is to write fifteen Hal Spacejock books before someone takes his keyboard away. Simon Haynes is a client of the John Jarrold Literary Agency. He's also the designer and programmer behind yWriter. The Hal Spacejock series is published by Fremantle Press and distributed by Penguin Australia. Book five is due 11/2009 and book six, 11/2010. |
