Description: Michael Watson has been a professionally qualified social worker for over twenty six years. He has worked in a variety of social work positions, starting out as a generic social worker in the 1980's and going on to work in adoption and later on specializing in working with Children and Families. Between 1986 and 1994 he worked for four different local authorities and then changed jobs to become what was then known as a Guardian Ad Litem for a number of years prior to the commencement of the Child And Family Court Advisory and Support Service (CAFCASS). After Cafacass was established his job title changed to that of a self employed Children's Guardian, but the duties were very largely the same. Basically, for the past almost twenty years, he has been an expert in the court with regard to children and families. Throughout his years as a social worker he has always been an aspiring writer. Although prior to him writing his first book, all his earlier writing involved fiction. It was not until he went on a course late last year that he decided he would put his considerable years of experience in the family court, including working with children and families and his writing skills together, to produce material that he hopes will benefit a far wider audience. His first book and one or two others in the pipeline will be focused on helping children, families and parents experiencing relationship problems. But don't be surprised if in the near future, you discover he is also writing fiction too.
