About Paul J. Scribbans

Paul J. Scribbans is a British author inspired by the landscapes of the English Lake District. His debut series, The Mereland Chronicles, combines mystery and atmospheric storytelling with themes of deception, survival, and psychological intrigue.
Drawn to complex characters, hidden agendas, and moral dilemmas, he writes stories filled with unexpected twists that challenge expectations and invite readers into worlds where nothing is quite what it seems.
Based in Cumbria, Paul draws inspiration from the fells, lakes, coastlines, and folklore of the region, using familiar landscapes as the backdrop for stories that explore human behaviour and motivation.
When not writing, Paul works in information technology and spends his free time trail running, hiking, and photographing the landscapes that inspire his stories.

A mystery of deception, survival, and hidden motives set
against the landscapes of medieval Cumbria.
