This is Craig Lock's first novel. A short novel set in "the beloved country". A passionate and heart-breaking tale of South Africa, a true story of the bad old days, but with the hope of the new. THE END OF THE LINE "The End Of The Line" could be described as a "faction", a fiction with a serious factual grounding. It is simple, and therefore moving. It gives yet another highly individual portrait of that troubled land, and it does so through a believable and sustained narrative form."
This is my second book and first novel (from 1993) ''The End Of The Line' could be described as "faction" - fiction with a serious factual grounding. It is simple, and therefore moving. It gives yet another highly individual portrait of that troubled land, and it does so through a believable and sustained narrative form. "The past is another country" A story based on fact in the dark days of grand apartheid, but with the rich promise and hope that a new South Africa can bring. In THE END OF THE LINE, Craig Lock has created a passionate tale of South Africa, a story of the bad old days, but with the hope of the new. Everything in this book could have happened. Perhaps it did...
Craig has been involved in the corporate world (life assurance) for over twenty years in South Africa, Australia (briefly) and New Zealand. However, through a strange set of circumstances and finding himself in a small town near the bottom of the world ...and with nothing else to do, he started writing. Five published books later (well they turned out to be a vanity publisher and he and his family lost everything, their life savings, including the kitchen sink* - that episode is a book in itself!). Now many years later, "recovering", having written another twenty manuscripts (on widely differing subjects - well what else is there to do here?)... this is where Craig is in the "journey/adventure" that is life.
Craig has taught at the local Polytechnic, as well as running a successful creative writing course (not teaching sheep!). Together with his "technowhizz"friend, Bill Rosoman, he was the author of (as far as we know) the first creative writing course on the internet and this has developed to new writing and publishing courses we have introduced on our new Creative Kiwis.com website (www.creative kiwis.com)
* that's a metaphor, btw ("by the way")

Craig has many varied interests and passions. He is particularly interested in the field of psychology studying the human mind and what makes different people "tick-tock grandfather clock". He is fascinated by the "overlap between psychology and the dimension of spirituality".
One of his missions in life is helping people make the most of their hidden potential and so finding their niche in life... so that they are happy.
PS
Don''t worry about the world ending today...
its already tomorrow in little scenic and tranquil New Zealand
