Thanks for visiting this site. I am the author of numerous articles and books - of both fiction and non-fiction. Some of my books are about railways.

I have started up a Substack (a weekly blog type thing) called Reading on Trains. See the link at the top of this page.

My novel, The Night in Venice, (written as AJ Martin) is forthcoming from Weidenfeld in July 2024.

My book, Metropolitan: an Ode to the Paris Metro, is out in hardback from Corsair.

My book about Yorkshire, Yorkshire: There and Back, is out in paperback.

I also write pop songs, and I have set up a music project called Brunswick Green. (The link is to some songs and home-made films on YouTube.) My music is also on Soundcloud and Spotify. Here, for example, is a song called The Big Idea.
