About me
An imaginative, idiosyncratic and creative writer, with a strong background in marketing, journalism, copywriting, broadcasting, editorial, ghostwriting and online publication. ------------ An unstoppable reader since age 2 with a passion for beautiful books and book collecting, particularly keen on classic science-fiction, mythology and worldwide folklore. Confirmed poet and poetry lover since university, influenced by everything between William Blake and W. B. Yeats. Will read aloud in a pleasing baritone on request. Movie buff and amateur critic (aren't we all) who never misses an episode of the Kermode & Mayo podcast. Lapsed cyclist/swimmer, active gym-goer, keen cook and enthusiastic but talentless archer.
