For some reason unknown to the general public, the hospital no longer exists.
After finishing High School and clueless as to what he wanted to become professionally, Ant eventually heard the calling and trained as a recording engineer, working in leading dubbing and voiceover studios in his adopted hometown.
In the mid nineties, and looking to widen his horizons, Ant returned to his native London where he ended up working in the Travel Industry. Despite it no longer being the glamorous career it was portrayed to be, he was still able to indulge in his other passion; travelling.
Unable yet to become a millionaire and live the debonair lifestyle he craved, the dormant writing talent in him began to flourish. Or so he believed. At first, he thought it could be a rash.
For better or for worse, Ant Richards began his new career as an accomplished travel writer, reviewing destinations, accommodation, flights and other unrelated nonsense. However, despite his best efforts, he was still unable to enjoy the freebies and perks he rightfully thought he deserved after going through all the trouble.
It was only a matter of time before he seriously considered writing his first novel. After many failed attempts, years of solitary confinement (in pubs, cafes, airport lounges, hotel rooms... and more bars) IN YOUR DREAMS came to life, and terrorised the literary world, again with a varying degree of success - within his neighbourhood and local pub in Lee.
Ant Richards currently lives in South East London with his family. He supports Liverpool, therefore he is definitely a hopeless dreamer.view less
