Derek_Wales
My name is Derek Ayre and I was born in Swansea, South Wales. I entered the music business as a pianist in my early twenties, and worked in local social and cabaret clubs. With the advent of disco-tech in the mid 70s and the later use "canned music" for cabaret artists, live musicians became less in demand, so I retrained as a hypnotherapist in 1976, and worked in my own practice until I went into semi-retirement this year (2010).
In the late 90s, looking to write a book about my experiences with personal development, I enrolled in a creative writing class with Cardiff University, where the love of writing fiction I had experienced in my childhood became renewed.
I went on to write a book on personal development, but with the advent of the Internet, I decided to break it all down into articles that he published on various websites and blogs to help others.
