David GatwardDavid was born in Bristol and grew up with his two younger brothers between the Cotswolds, Wensleydale and Lincolnshire thanks to the transient life of having a Methodist minister for a dad. Aside from having a huge number of hobbies including: cavin, camping, climbing, archery, shooting and music, David also wrote avidly.
