About the author (1990)

Ian Newbold lives in the Staffordshire, England with his son Max. As well as writing and being a full-time dad, Ian works as a freelance business consultant, likes to make things out of wood and tries to pretend he is still sporty by playing cricket and hockey. He writes the blog 'Single Parent Dad' and describes himself as a 'widowed parent, raising a child alone, as well as generally making a nuisance of myself. Prone to bouts of genius and modesty failure.'
