Jasper Gibson

Jasper Gibson was born in Ashbourne, Derbyshire in 1975. He now lives in East Sussex and is the co-founder of thepoke.co.uk , the UK's largest comedy site with over ten million hits a month.

‘A Bright Moon For Fools’ was his first novel - Andy Williams now chats to Jasper about his upcoming book ‘The Octopus Man' - a novel that takes us into the complex world of voice-hearing and that asks the fundamental questions about belief, meaning, and love.

‘THE OCTOPUS MAN reminds us that behind the words “mental health” lies a universe of WILD CREATIVITY, HUMANITY and SPANKING BIG LIFE. Now is the time for this book.’
