Since Francois could first read he wanted to be an author.
After leaving a successful career in 2010, Francois returned to his childhood dream of being an author.
His first books were a children's series titled the "Junglies" series. The 'Junglies' is a series of twelve stories about the adventures of five jungle animals and their game warden friend. The stories are great to introduce children to endangered species and unity in diversity. Specific stories teach children about recycling and conservation, camouflage and teamwork as well as other concepts.
Francois followed the "Junglies' with children's stories in rhyme which include, 'The Tickle Tree' and 'A Bear in There'. Other children's stories not written in rhyme include 'Why Cry' and 'Not Eggsactly Easy'.
Francois progressed to Fantasy novels and published two fantasy novels titled 'WordRealm' and "Viva La Vida' which was inspired by the Coldplay song of the same name.
Francois is South African and currently lives in Bali, Indonesia with his wife and two daughters who are artistic in their own ways too.
