Mike Bellis, lives in a small village in the heart of Snowdonia in North Wales. He is 59 years old and wrote his book over 25 years ago. He is married to his beautiful wife Jenny and has 2 children Hayley and Jessie, and a beautiful granddaughter Raeyah who he adores.
The 11-year-old boy in his book Daniel Hawthorn is him growing up in the small council house in Tal Y Bont North Wales in 1975. Places, people and incidents at the beginning of his book are real, but on a horrific stormy day in December, He discovers a goblin-like creature locked in the depths of the old derelict mansion's cellar. His life from then on changes forever and the evil Dark Lord Huckle tries to destroy Daniel with his evil Grotchin soldiers.
Writing my book was utterly amazing he said the characters flew out at him like wolves ready to devour their meal. They all wanted to be in his book and hungrily he let them seep deeper and deeper into his mind.
Firstly there was
Master Huckle
Wow where did he come from. Tall dark and evil. He took over me for a while as i was writing and he wanted to rule the universe. Would i let him?, well that is the question. His grip on me was overwhelming, he wanted to defeat everyone who walked in his pathway. He wanted Daniel so much to join him in the world of magic and wizardry. Could he change Daniel from the quiet boy from the village of Bont into his dark loyal servant, or will the boy see the light and destroy the dark lord?
MMMMMM we will see, Huckle is not impressed.
Daniel Hawthorn
A skinny, frail 11 years old boy from a tiny villagecalled Tal Y Bont in the heart of Snowdonia. His house is cold, his bedroom was cold, even his life was cold. His school was horrendous as where all the teachers. A nightmare on that freezing cold stormy night on December the 19th 1975 would change his life forever. Will he survive the next chapter of his life? Maybe, maybe not. I cant kill the main character in my first book or can i ?

Another Wow. The great Tippling from the land of Fentwell with powers of magic unheard of before. Spells sorcery and witchcraft would be cast, but could he defeat the master and his loyal Grotchin warriors and save Daniel in this thrilling new dark fantasy adventure.
I am writing book 2 now of The Tippling Tales and the characters are flowing nicely. I need to see who survives Daniel or Huckle?. My plan is working but, Huckle keeps telling me to change it. This character is strong i need to be stronger. Huckle is telling me to destroy the boy because of his new found strengths. What shall i do?
I hope you enjoyed my bio and my book. Beware of the master he is closer than you think.
