Biography
Martyn Ford
Martyn Ford is a journalist, author and one of those lingiusturites who isn't afraid to make up new words. He is represented by Clare Wallace at the Darley Anderson Literary, TV and Film Agency. His debut novel, THE IMAGINATION BOX, published by Faber & Faber, was released in May 2015.
During the daytime he works for the Bordon Herald where he reports on all the exciting things that occur in and around Whitehill and Bordon. It's quite simple really, he just writes down true things that happen and then it is printed in the newspaper.
He's done lots of things, but it started getting relevant in 2007 when his writing career began. He was fortunate enough to be employed as a reporter for the Post Gazette series of newspapers based in Alton, Hampshire. There he wrote for titles including the Hampshire Voice and the Alton Post Gazette.
Shortly after leaving that position he put together IT HAPPENED TO ME; a true story book published by Summersdale.
Martyn is currently working on various bits and, indeed, bobs including some fiction suitable for adult humans as well as the third installment in the aforementioned Imagination Box series. He spends a lot of his time writing and/or thinking about writing. Sometimes he even thinks about thinking about writing, which is a special kind of procrastination. He likes pasta and has a lot of titanium implants in his mouth because most of his big teeth didn't appear but, get this, no one knows why...
