He moved to Huntingdon to become Senior Advisory Teacher for Reading and Language, and after many years in post he became a free lance teacher trainer, consultant and writer. In 1992 he was appointed one of the two General Editors of Cambridge Reading, a major resource for the teaching of reading in primary schools in Britain and worldwide, a position he held for five years. Many of his works have been translated and adapted for the international market, and the Golden Armour series of fantasy novels have been translated into German, Czech and Portuguese. Richard has moved between writing teaching materials for pupils and teachers to the writing of novels for the commercial market. He has also served on judging panels for children's writing competitions. He now writes poetry for adults and teaches poetry writing classes privately and as a Panel Tutor for Cambridge Unversity's Institute of Continuing Education.
