About Liam

I've written nine feature screenplays, of which four were commissioned and three have been optioned. Two are now in development with production companies in LA. I've edited another five scripts for various producers and am now developing my children’s book, The Battle of Boxhill, into a feature-length animation.

I started writing novels and sports books in 2003 and have now written or co-written 65 titles, including the non-fiction bestseller 'The Sledger’s Handbook: How to Deliver the Perfect Cricketing Insult' (2006). I've edited more than 40 books, including the 'Discarded Science' series for Hugo Award-winning author Paul Barnett. I also work as a freelance copywriter/sub-editor for The Daily Telegraph.
