Wick Pearl is an advertising veteran who refuses to namedrop the more popular brands for which he has written (Nike, Four Seasons, Ferragamo). He is also far too humble to reveal how many copies of his first novel, Last of the Mighty, sold (74). Nor will he confess his previous nom de plume (Phineas Foxx).
He will, however, admit that one of the secrets to his mediocrity may lay in a diet of chocolate, whipped cream, tea, coffee, almonds and Brazil nuts.
After spending most of his days in San Francisco, Newport Beach and San Diego, Wick now resides in a small English village with five pubs, three churches, a violin shop and a former cottage-turned-beauty-shop where Van Gogh’s sister once lived (impoverished Vincent having once walked 22 miles from his London flat to visit her).
