Griff Hosker is a published English author.

He was born in Lancashire at St. Helens in 1950. He attended a grammar school for boys, Cowley Grammar School. Later on, he qualified to become an English and drama teacher. For thirty-five years, he taught in the North East of England. Around that time, he was writing quite a bit, including plays and musicals to be put on by the students at the schools that he worked at. He wrote musicals like Shakespeare the Musical and The Journey, which was performed in 2000 at the Millennium Dome.

Griff took a break from teaching so that he could go and establish his own consultancy firm. Still, he continued to work for schools and colleges as an advisor. Eventually that work came to a conclusion for him as a result of the new conservative government and all of a sudden Hosker found that he had a lot of time on his hands. Since he had started working when he was fifteen years of age, he wasn’t used to the lack of work and didn’t care for it.

Griff then decided that he would begin doing research into a specific time in history, the Roman Invasion of Britain. He was doing so with the idea of making a novel based around the history and time period. He sat down and wrote it and this became his novel The Sword of Carmandua.

These days, the author likes to write historical fiction and for all of his stories conducts extensive research. He also has the characters and their conduct be reminiscent of the time in history that they are from. Griff is very happy with his decision, saying that choosing to be a writer and start writing was one of the best choices he ever made.

The author enjoys history, visiting castles, and reading historical fictional novels. He has also written a book for younger children bought by many schools called Great Granny’s Ghost. He often visits the schools that have bought the novels and speaks to the students. Having spoken at different award ceremonies, he is also doing more public speaking.
