Autorenporträt
Martin Conway was born and raised in North London. After more than two years of compulsory military service, he started a working life in insurance broking, married and raised a family. His innate creative flair was not given free rein until retirement when he became a self-taught sculptor. At the age of 86, he rekindled a passion for writing that he had had as a young man, and he set himself the task of writing at least 50 short stories.
