Simon Bardwell

Simon Bardwell is a pen name. I am a reclusive Hobbit and seeking to hide my real identity. Recently, I have realised this is inconsistent with being a published writer. I can only offer you breadcrumbs here. For example, my mother raised me South of London near Croydon. After a brief stint in a monastery in Kent failing to be a monk, I then worked for 43 years in central London. All that work proved to me and to others that I have a very enquiring mind and very much like to get to the bottom of things. In retirement, my motto is, "write your heart out!" Being a writer has brought me a new lease of life. Life isn't over until we drop off the perch.
