About Anthony Braithwaite

Anthony Braithwaite has been a writer for 10 years. After writing a play, two novels and several short stories, he has decided to finally begin his writing career with “A Perfect Fit”. He has always enjoyed historical fiction, and names Robert Louis Stevenson and Charles Dickens as his main inspirations for writing. One of the reasons he began writing was when he heard the story, years ago, of how Robert Louis Stevenson wrote Treasure Island. Apparently, Stevenson was reading a typical adventure novel of his time, and then threw it down in disgust. He said something to the tune of: “I can write a better book than this”. Then, he wrote Treasure Island. Feeling similar feelings with much of the fiction of today, Braithwaite has striven to create atmosphere, characters and story in a compelling historic setting. We feel that he has accomplished his task admirably.
