Guy Hale was born in Worcestershire, England. His first job was as a professional golfer. He also played rugby in raced motorcycles until his mid-twenties. When this failed to kill him he started writing plays, mostly two handers which he performed in pubs and assorted venues with his mate, Andy.
When no call came from Hollywood he went back into golf until his mid-thirties. Having met and married the love of his life, Lou, he was encouraged to get a proper job… by the boss. This led to him getting into construction and the design and supplier of light gauge steel, really exciting stuff! Surprisingly this surf bum, ex-rugby player, ex-golfer, keen motorcyclist and cyclist turned out to be pretty good at business and he and his partner Matt built a highly successful company which they sold in 2018. Instead of doing the sensible thing and retiring he started Gulf Coast Records with Mike Zito and then started songwriting. One night in a bar in LA Mike told him a story about a dream he’d had. That story turned into the Jimmy Wayne saga and Guy was off and running.
Strange how you can drift into things. Now the Jimmy Wayne come back trail trilogy is complete, it’s had great reviews and Mike and Guy have done a soundtrack, with the great Kid Andersen to go along with the books.
Last year Guy brought out the first Shakespeare Murder Mystery The Croaking Raven, a prequel All Our Yestedays and a third novel Put Out the Light followed. Th next in the series is expected at the end of 2025, early 2026.
