BORN and educated in West Devon, Ted Sherrell has had an interesting and most diverse working career; past work has included being a civil servant, newspaper reporter, a fireman, factory worker, door- to-door salesman, insurance agent, shopkeeper, proof- reader (which he still does, part-time) and as a business adviser calling, principally, upon farms in the South West. Also, some years ago he obtained an Honours Degree in History following a correspondence course.
A farmer’s son, he has worked amongst and been around the farming and rural communities of Devonshire for most of his life; he draws greatly upon this background - plus his various working experiences - when writing his novels and short stories.
As well as his writing career, Ted Sherrell has for
many years been involved in local government as a member of Tavistock Town Council and West Devon Borough Council. He is also a magistrate, sitting regularly on the Plymouth bench. Married to Ann, he has 4 sons - Neill, James, Matthew and David - and 7 grandchildren.
Looking Towards the Tamar will be published on 7th October priced £16.95and will be available in local bookshops, and at the Tavistock Times Gazette Office 14, Brook Street, Tavistock.
