John Dougherty was born in Larne, Northern Ireland. In early
secondary school, with a group of friends, he took to writing and
illustrating comics - mostly about insects, since they were easier to
draw than people - and from there, began writing other pieces of
silliness. John had various jobs before becoming a full-time writer.
These include voluntary work for Barnado's, a stint as a YMCA worker
in Norwich, a summer camp rep, a machine operator in a tape factory in
London and he was also a primary school teacher. John now lives in
Stroud, Gloucester, with his wife and two children, where he spends
his time writing, reading, putting on fantastic author events in
schools, running for the local Athletics Club and playing his guitar.
