Ian Shimwell

I naturally loved English and Literature at school and pursued both successfully in further education etc.Over the years, I have written many different works from short stories to novellas and covered genres such as science fiction, historical adventure, horror and mysteries.More recently, I began to write three-act plays based on favourite series which eventually led to developing my own, 'The Armchair Detective'. My aim was to create a unique, absorbing and fun mystery series.'Armchair Detective' titles have been as high as No. 2 in Amazon Kindle's British Detectives and Drama (British & Irish) catagories and inside the top-selling 7,000 in the USA and inside the top-selling 550 in the UK.
