My Bio

Writing

I have worked for many media publications and companies writing on subjects such as interior design, club and restaurant reviews, interviews and all manner of fanciful malarkey.

My most exciting experience was when the Daily Express Newspaper asked me to drive like the clappers to a hotel and interview the Formula 1 BBC commentator and former racing driver, David Coulthard. I drove so fast that I was there before he was. In my opinion that should have earned me a Ferrari though, to be honest, I’m more partial to an Aston Martin.

I have written several books, a number of songs, some humorous verse, and words of wisdom.  My style takes me along different avenues and personas depending upon the subject, personality, or platform. The Jules Smith brand encompasses Satirical Snapshots of life via ‘Whimsy On A Wednesday’, and Art Philosophy and Art at Jules Smith ART 

I also write and illustrate for companies:  product description, content for websites, bio’s, press releases, blogs, and social media.

A writer with a slant on the extraordinary.  

Not yesterday, not tomorrow;  I’m right now.

My personal style is of a whimsical nature. I like to observe people, life and situations and find the humour within; often in a black comedy way. I enjoy reaching into the deeper emotions of readers and making them feel. I write in a storytelling fashion that enables me to engage with the reader and paint a visual picture that they can find some way to relate to.

Synopsis

A free-spirited, quirky soul with a passion for the fanciful, that won’t go out in the rain unless there’s a tarantula in the living room or a margarita at the other end.
