Robert Glancy

I was born in Zambia and raised in Malawi – a country known as the Warm Heart of Africa but made famous as the place where Madonna finds her children. At 14 I moved from the warm heart of Africa to the cold lungs of Edinburgh, where I discovered the true meaning of the term ‘culture shock’. After Edinburgh I studied history at Cambridge. Then off to London where, before I had time to find a career, a career in communications found me. In my search to return to warmer weather, I moved to beautiful New Zealand in 2003, where I have lived ever since with my wife and two children. Except for 2014 where I moved to France and divided my time very unevenly between cat-sitting and writing my second book. The cat just about survived - sorry Molly! - and I finished my second book - Please Do Not Disturb.I am now back in New Zealand writing book three.My first book, Terms & Conditions, launched in 2014. My second book, Please Do Not Disturb, is being published by Bloomsbury in 2016.As well as writing books, I have also written articles for The Guardian, The Independent, Daily Telegraph, Conde Nast and Esquire.
