Following a troubled childhood and adolescence, with an unhealthy attraction to trouble, he joined the railway. Then after working as a manager for an international rail company in London for 13 years, he left to pursue his writing career.
Tracing his natural parents at the age of 30, led to the discovery that his father was a 60's rock star.
He now lives and writes at his home looking over the woods that, figuratively speaking, took him so long to get out of.
His first book, Yeah Baby, was featured both at the 2010 London Book Fair and Glastonbury festival.
His second book, Damaged Goods, received some great reviews, including one in Record Collector Magazine and one from Howard Marks aka Mr Nice.
His latest book, 'Not Quite Classic Cars', takes the reader back to the days when tinkering beneath the bonnet was a national pass time and car ownership was an occupation as well as a luxury.
What Other People Have Said..
'By the time he's in his 20s.... deliverance and a sense of purpose is long overdue, and the reader is practically punching the air as Julian goes straight and embarks upon the long journey back to his fundamental self.'
