About: I was born in South Wales what feels like a very long time ago. There, in a small town which masquerades as a city, I developed a love for punk rock, dark fiction & film, and all manner of other strangeness. After spending a decade or so traveling around the UK, with the odd foray into Europe, I settled in Scotland where I studied all things eldritch and ancient. Once I had attained an MA in Archaeology I decided to move to Europe where that MA was even more useless than in the UK. I now live in the city of Bremen in northern Germany where I complain incessantly about being a Landscape Archaeologist in an area that makes the Netherlands look like the bloody Himalayas and try not to drink too much of the cheap good beer that is available everywhere. At some point I decided that it would be a good idea to try and become a writer. Some of the results of this decision can be found on my website as well as in a few other places dotted along the Information Superhighway. I don’t own a cat, only occasionally have a beard, and rarely type in my underwear. This leads many to doubt my commitment to the craft.
