G.M. White lives on St Martin's, in the Isles of Scilly, with his wife and son. Like many people on the islands he wears a few different hats. Now a full time stay at home dad, he also works several part time jobs, is on the local Coastguard rescue team, sits on the committee for St Martin's Island Hall and Reading Room, plays cricket (poorly) for St Martin's Cricket Club, and somehow finds time to write.
