An accessible history of all things strange in the sky (and a few abduction claims). Based on the book of the same name this is an objective overview of a range of claims from the fantastic to the highly skeptical taking in the best known UFO cases (like the Roswell incident), along with some jaw dropping incidents rarely discussed (including the midlands housewife who offered mince pies to visiting aliens and the retired soldier rejected by ageist aliens for abduction in Aldershot in 1983). I'll share a few of my own tales from a lifetime of involvement, research and writing including the one time I communicated with aliens (by post, to an Oxfordshire address) and the time M15 interrupted my reporting on a mystery and chased me across Kent.

I have been writing for publication since I was a student; a career that has allowed me to explore a number of subjects to the point of being an expert with a fund of stories. At the end of the last century I founded the UK's first higher education course in Professional Writing. Over the years I have written and spoken on a range of subjects but am currently offering talks based on life-long interests and passions. All of these talks are negotiable in terms of length, the range of examples brought into any discussion and the extent to which hard facts and humour are included. More than anything I am happy to negotiate each event to take into account the needs of an audience.
