Bob Ayres served a 15-year stretch as a teacher before switching careers to write and produce short-form documentaries, animations and dramas for BBC Teach, BBC Bitesize and TrueTube, winning three Children's BAFTAs in the process. He has also written full-cast audio dramas including Doctor Who stories for Big Finish Productions. Bob first discovered Stingray when he was a child - but not on TV. He found a second-hand paperback with a mysterious cover that featured Thunderbirds-like characters he'd never seen before... And now - many years later - Bob is delighted to be continuing the literary adventures of Stingray's crew in this, his first novella. AC has contributed to numerous Anderson Entertainment projects as writer, producer, director and occasional voice actor. He is perhaps best known as the creator of the web series Century 21 Tech Talk and for his continuing role as producer on Anderson Entertainment's series of Thunderbirds and Stingray audio dramas.
