This is the family’s storefront. The Caxton Quills name came from the idea of a publishing venture in the mid nineteen-eighties. The concept then was to produce participation books for children.
Twenty plus years later and Print on Demand has given the family the opportunity to move forward again.
Caxton Quills was always about fulfilling a creative need and to that end it continues.

Hardcover Print: $36.60 The Trilogy in hardback:
Early civilisations, their cultures, beliefs have always fascinated me. My writing of this trilogy was in a sense an exploration into that unknown world of prehistory.
This fictional tale relates to the arrival of modern humans, the hominoid that ascends to a higher plane of consciousness. The story centres around a group of modern day friends who are drawn into an adventure to recover the Stones of Enlightenment. Exposure to their strange powers enhances their natural abilities, and leads to the discovery of ancient knowledge that reveals a dark secret from prehistory.
The story is explored through a series of Archaeological finds, the translation of ancient scripts and developments in the modern science of Genetic profiling. Yet there is also a growing awareness of a past existence that connects the friends to the emergence and development of modern humans and also their possible future extinction.

Print: $6.30 Download: FREE Following the interest in writing my first outpourings of delusionary Wit, it seems I’ve started to collect enough random verses for a second collection.
I consider myself a writer not a real poet, so I have a lackadaisical attitude to the use and meaning of rhyming words. When I’m writing my novels and I’m hit with that blank page what to write syndrome, I find writing verse helps rekindle the creative juices. Sparked of by a news item, something I’ve overheard, or recently read, it is usually brought on by the simple need to diversify my thoughts.
