I was The Sun’s New York Correspondent during the Bill Clinton scandal with Monica Lewinsky, and I’ve also spent some years covering the Royals.

Since those heady days in the 1990s, I’ve written for most of the British tabloids, the Scotsman and occasionally even for The Wall Street Journal.

I’ve also written six novels, ranging far and wide from historical fiction to satire. One of these books was about Britain’s most wanted fugitive, the seventh Earl of Lucan; it may yet be turned into a film.

I’m currently embroiled in an epic series of love stories, with two already out - “The Well-Tempered Clavier” and “The Woman Who Made Men Cry” - and another three due to be published in 2013.

For more on the books, as well as my esoteric views on love and the Marathon des Sables, check out my website - www.wcoles.com

There's also a little 30-second video. I can't promise much, but what I can tell you is that you will never have seen an author video like it...

If The TV Flash of Kate's Bikini Photos Was a Genuine Mistake Then I'm a Monkey's Uncle!

Just the teensiest point of order about the Duchess of Cambridge pictures being "mistakenly" flashed to millions of viewers on ITV's This Morning: would it be too daring, too risky, to suggest that, just perhaps, there was no mistake whatsoever about it?

I know. Maybe I'm just a raddled old...
