I'll tell you now that you cannot curb
my enthusiasm for the written word;
so if you judge based on a pitiful blurb
I'll consider your opinion completely absurd.

My efforts go into the section "main"
so if the description is poor lay no blame;
for the inspiration is spent before I explain,
but I know underselling is a crying shame.

I was often the person that other people went to with their problems and dilemmas. Unfortunately I never practised what I preached and very rarely talked about my own problems, believing that I could deal with it. All of this bottling up led to an accumulative build up of pressure, which when coupled with work stress and anxiety led to far greater issues.

I wrote a little when I was about 14-16 and again just before I turned 18, but for a long time very little inspired me to write - until now and I can't stop! Because I've shuffled my writing a little, I've created a list below outlining what was written when, just in case it's important to you.

Some of the things you will read are based on me and others are completely fictitious.

(needless personal backstory removed)

Update Jan 2014: Novel reading is back on and I'm back on WC more regularly, reading and reviewing!
Update Mar 2015: ...So the above didn't last long - it's been a year since I've written anything of note (worth publishing), but I've been busy with non-writey-lifey-stuff. It's probably actually a good thing as it shows I've moved on from where I was...


If you have any questions (if you've got this far without dropping off) just get in touch, otherwise I appreciate any critique - both positive and constructive feedback.
