Dan Corns trained as a journalist and now enjoys his work as an English and Media Studies teacher. He is married with two sons, who help try to keep order between a dog and two cats in their house. Dan is from Wolverhampton, and as a child he borrowed so many books from his local library that he had to be given an adult library card when he was 7. As well as reading as much as possible in his spare time, he also enjoys messing with old cars and trying to beat his children in video games. The ideas for Lucerin originated in philosophical considerations about the power of dreams. However, these thoughts turned into something concrete when Dan became a teacher and felt frustrated with the books he had to teach his students: inspired initially by the idea of lucid dreams, Dan’s world of Lucerin sprang into life, becoming the setting for an action novel that grips and engages real students of the age group he teaches. |
