Anselm Rajah

I am a first-time author hoping to not confine myself to a specific genre, recently retired from the NHS as a Patient Engagement Worker. In my spare time, I play instrumental hard rock guitar, some bass and write quirky Christian metal songs.

My childhood ambition was to write but life has a way of taking you down roads you may have not wished to have travelled. Journalism was the goal, but I ended up working in mental health for twelve years although I'm also qualified as a legal secretary.

In my early retirement I returned to my original calling, drawing upon years of songwriting and playing guitar and began to rethink my goals and work out my next steps.

Overmorrow began with a piece of music with some kind of lyrics driving the narrative but it blossomed into a novel and I’m so pleased it took that form and now have the exceptional opportunity to share it and to keep sharing my stories.

When I'm not writing or playing music I support Liverpool FC (since childhood may I add), the LA Chargers in the NFL and the St.Kilda Saints in the Australian Footie League AFL. Love my footie.
