R. Douglas Wardrop

I am from a small village in Scotland in the UK called Auchinleck.

I studied physics at Stratchclyde University in Glasgow.

I currently live alone in my two-bed flat in Reading in the UK.

My first job was at Vickers Shipbuilders in Barrow-in-Furness in 1984 where I worked for 4 years as an IT software developer on weapons systems software. I worked in IT for a further 20 years - for companies Serco Systems for 9 years (north-east England & west London); EDS for 2 years (central & west London); and Energis (which was taken over by Cable and Wireless in about 2006) for a further 9 years (Reading & Bracknell).

Due to ill-health I stopped working in about 2008.

I am divorced with 2 children who live in France - David who is 11 and Ellie who is 9 (at April 2015).

I have been a Christian for about eleven-and-a-half years.

Regarding me as an author:

1) From about 2012 God has given me 5 books to write.

2) One ("A Young Person's Guide to Christianity") is published (now March 2015).

3) Two more "Spiritual Disciplines for Today - Getting Closer to God" and "A Christian Understanding of Deception - Gaining an Appreciation of How satan Uses Deception") should be published next month.

4) Two more ("Life Principles from the Bible" and a fiction novel called "Living Free") are underway.
