It’s my eldest’s first day at preschool today, and my first day on this blog.

You may know me from Twitter, chances are that’s how you found me, but I am 32, I write SFF and I play with swords.

I’ve been writing with increasing seriousness for a couple of years now. I write mainly speculative fiction and have this past year been working on a series of fantasy noir books with coauthor David Murray.

The title of the blog reflects my writing habits. I’m at home with two kids so I take my chances to write where I can – often my car is my study.

Here is where I plan to share my writing experiences, journey towards publication, thoughts, fiction, interviews, reviews and stuff that might be useful anyone with an interest in writing and speculative fiction. Writing’s a lonely activity, so it’s good to share.

See my About page for more about me, and Where Dead Gods Lie Buried – the website of my coauthored books.
