Born in Australia of English parents in 1930 during the Great Depression, Howard Reede-Pelling had a very deprived childhood. Due to a dispute over religion, his parents split up, and he traveled to Melbourne with his father and was put into a Canterbury Boys' Home. After four years of very strict regimen, Howard was again with his father. Not wanted, the lad was pushed from pillar to post. He set led down at seventeen when he became interested in sporting activities. For fifty years, Howard indulged in skating, swimming and various academic pursuits such as lapidary, numismatics, writing and bush lore. In later life, a stint at Billiards and Snooker in which he won numerous trophies, including a Champion of Champions award for Eight Ball was enjoyed; then a stroke almost ended his career. It was his interest in writing, poetry, and prose that became dearest to his heart. In this medium, Howard found that something that gave his life meaning. He could let himself delve into the mysterious unknown and become his own maestro for planning and diversifying a lifestyle to which he could not in real life, find answers for to fulfill himself. He was able to invent stories that were feasible and varied.
