Charlie Higson started writing when he was ten years old, but it was a long time before he got paid for doing it. On leaving university he was the singer in a pop group (The Higsons) before giving it up to become a painter and decorator. It was around this time that he started writing for television on Saturday Night Live. He went on to create the hugely successful comedy series The Fast Show, in which he also appeared. Other TV work includes Randall and Hopkirk (Deceased) and Swiss Toni.

He is the author of the bestselling Young Bond books, and The Enemy: Geeks vs Zombies is part of his bestselling horror series, The Enemy. Charlie doesn't do Facebook, but you can tweet him @monstroso.
