Simon Cheshire hated school and, on the whole, school wasn't too keen on him either. He had a successful career in book marketing until leaving the publishing industry in 2001 to write full time.
“I was writing with the intention of getting published
since I was a teenager and was turning out a steady stream of
utter rubbish until I turned thirty. At that point I finally accepted
that my mental age would never exceed ten, turned to children’s
stories and at last found my natural habitat.”
