Writing

Copywriting

By day, I’m an advertising copywriter, which to some means I’m good at lying eloquently.

I write stuff for voice, print and for the web, and I’ve got a decent grasp of SEO — useful if you’re looking for a friendlier front page.

I can be freelance, too, if you like — I’ve done bits and bobs for The Guardian, among others — and you’re always welcome to see my portfolio. Just give me a nudge.

Fiction

I’m working on a brace of novels, some of which I’m hoping to finish before I’m thirty, or dead. I’ve also finished a SF adventure novel called Colin & The Strimmer Men. It was very nearly published in summer 2009. Apparently signing a contract for a book deal doesn’t always mean you’ve got a book deal.
