D J Harrison is a husband, father to four children, scientist, businessman and writer, not always in that order. Amongst his sources of inspiration he lists his wife, Anne Marie, at the very top followed, not too closely, by Vonnegut, Chandler and Dylan.

D J Harrison is a husband, father to four children, scientist, businessman and writer, not always in that order. Amongst his sources of inspiration he lists his wife, Anne Marie, at the very top followed, not too closely, by Vonnegut, Chandler and Dylan.
His recently published Fantasy trilogy has been very well received.
Dave’s first love is writing; his career has depended on his ability with words, both written and spoken. His second love is reading.
In 2007, he decided to devote time to fiction writing and has since produced one novel a year.
Due Diligence was Dave’s first Jenny Parker crime novel. Its success inspired him to follow it up with two more, Proceeds of Crime and Limited Liability. When he announced that Limited Liability would be the final instalment of Jenny Parker he was cajoled into writing one more book by a German lady who claimed that her command of English had been improved so much by reading the first three that she needed another one to make it perfect. Dave, always a sucker for flattery, what he thought would be the final Jenny Parker novel, Exit Strategy. Three more are now in the pipeline.
He is on Instagram, djharrisonauthor, and Twitter, @djharrison99, and blogs as Northern Writer. (http://djharrison99.blogspot.com/).
Dave’s career has brought him into contact with a variety of individuals and organisations, some of which might be classed as dubious and, in one or two cases, dangerous. His work has involved extensive travel throughout Europe, the USA and the Caribbean. He even spent some time being smuggled in and out of communist East Germany, such was his devotion to an over-enthusiastic venture capital fund.
