George Mahood

George Mahood is an award-winning writer. Specifically, he was placed third in the Little Brington Village Fete's limerick competition (Under 11s category) in 1988. It was the same year that Mrs Marriott's legendary fruit loaf was beaten in the WI cake contest for the first time in six years.\n\nGeorge studied Communication Studies and English Literature at Leeds University. After spending a year travelling in the USA (with clothes and money), he worked for several years in a variety of jobs including charity fund-raising and garlic bread making. George has been the lead singer and guitarist of a rubbish band and the chairman and midfielder of an awful Sunday-league football team.\n\nGeorge has plenty more madcap ideas that will form the basis of future books.
