A local graphic designer has written and published a debut novel which is now available to buy. Paul Johnson, from Tur Langton, has been running a design agency since 1996. He has decided to turn his hand to writing a book, which he began during the Covid lockdown of 2021. Published under his pen name, Ben George Johnson, the book, called The Creaking Tree, is described as a light-hearted fantasy adventure for all the family. Initial reviews have been extremely positive, as the author explains… “I have been amazed by the number of people that have given me such positive feedback about the book already.

I wanted to create a story that makes people happy, one that is free of nastiness and full of optimism and hope. I have always had a wild imagination and this has really helped me create the wonderful characters and storyline.”
