Paul Johnston – Author<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>
\n

Paul Johnston has been a professional musician and composer for over 30 years. Writer of two critically acclaimed musicals and several Gospel Music albums, Paul is an accomplished storyteller.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Narcissist<\/em> is his debut novel. He deftly and humorously guides the reader through the tortured mind of a narcissist to their ultimate tragic demise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His second book, Robin and I<\/em> is a hilarious but bittersweet autobiographical romp through the 80\u2019s with his best mate, the maverick Robin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paul\u2019s third novel, Emily, is set in 1850\u2019s London. A dark victorian gothic story of murder, mutilation, spirits and macabre underworld powers. Into this world is thrust a young clairvoyant girl who holds the key to finding the murderers and possibly preventing a hellish armageddon, as the physical and spiritual planes collide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paul lives in Brighton UK, by the sea, with his artist wife Laura and their two oriental cats Moshi and Ziggy.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
