Krimis & Thriller
RICHARD ATTREE always wanted to be a writer but was diverted into writing music rather than books. Growing up in London in the 1960s Richard studied, experimented with sex, drugs, rock ‘n roll, and grew his hair. By the mid-1970s he had a degree in philosophy, his hair had reached its zenith, and he was playing keyboards in jazz, rock, and soul bands. For the next thirty years, he composed music for TV, working at the BBC’s renowned Radiophonic Workshop, before going freelance. In 2007 he retired from the media music business and downshifted to El Médano—a sunny, windy, surfy town in the Canary Islands, off the coast of Africa. This gave him the opportunity to get to grips with writing while pursuing his other passion: windsurfing, combining them in a series of articles for ‘Boards’ magazine: ‘Life on the Reef’. Richard has been a windsurfer for most of his life. Like Nick (the main character in his novel: ‘Too Close to the Wind’) he sometimes jokes that it’s his ‘religion’. It’s certainly an obsession that has taken him around the world searching for wind, waves, and adventure. These days there’s not much hair left and he focusses on writing (when it’s not windy). His motto is: ‘Keep Scribbling!’ He’s published two books co-authored with his wife, Nikki: ‘Nobody’s Poodle’ (2013), a short novel written from the perspective of their rescue dog, and ‘Somebody’s Doodle’ (2016), a fast-moving, heady mix of crime, humour, romance, and a few more dogs. ‘Too Close to the Wind’ (2019) is his debut solo novel. It’s a journey of self-discovery narrated by a young Australian windsurfer. Dogs don’t feature in it. You can connect with him at www.RichardAttree.com (where there’s a more revealing and entertaining version of this biog, complete with some occasionally embarrassing pics illustrating how the haircuts have reflected the zeitgeist of the decades he’s lived through) … and on his FaceBook page: Richard Attree - Author
