Author - A.M. Standish

Dear Reader,

Thank you for visiting my website and taking the time out of your busy day. It is very much appreciated and welcomed. I was born and raised in Wigan, in the United Kingdom. On leaving school I joined the British Army and completed a tour of duty in Kosovo in 1999. Having left the armed forces in the late of 2001, I became a freelance photojournalist covering stories for my local newspaper, working with military veterans and their families. I covered a variety of stories during the Covid outbreak and with my photography I helped loved ones to stay connected with their family who were living in care homes. Due to my mental health, photography and writing became my life line. By that I mean a reason to live! Over the years I have been writing poetry, not knowing that it would lead me to releasing my very first novel “Crack On”. I am now writing my first fantasy novel, Helgorith - Battle For Helgor. This will be the first of a series of publications written by myself. A new world, complete with magical creatures, tension, love, betrayal and more..

Alongside my fantasy novel I am now working on my Science Fiction series, Rhea’s Voyage. Exciting isn’t it, so keep an eye out for the blogs and be sure to subscribe!

I love to read and write, if a chance comes up to speak about my fantasy novel then I am more than willing 😁 Please subscribe to find our what I am up to and to receive snippets from my latest works and more…
