D. B. Carter lives with his family on the edge of a small town nestled amongst the rolling hills of rural Devon, England. The son of two nomadic artists, he grew up in a world of creativity, studying painting techniques under his parents' tutelage. In his 20s, he went to university and followed a career in science and later commerce, running his own business for twenty years. A lifelong bibliophile, he is firmly of the opinion that there is no such thing as too many books, only insufficient shelf space; it was his love of classical literature, of Dickens and Brontë, that led to the creation of The Cherries. His philosophy is, If we look for the good, we will find it.
