Welcome. I’m Kevin Barron. By day, I’m a business consultant and father, but once the kids are in bed I’m a writer too. I write for my day job as well, but it’s a whole different kind of writing.
I’m English, but since 2004 I’ve usually been based in Auckland, New Zealand. This is partly because I’m married to a Kiwi and partly because I like it there. We only went for two years. - Kevin Barron
