Hello, 

I live in Australia and am passionate about reading, learning, creativity, music, film and good coffee. I will read almost anything that comes my way. Still, just to narrow things down I'll list some of my favourite authors: Angela Carter, Haruki Murakami, Philip K. Dick, Jorge Luis Borges, Mark Twain (particularly his travel books), Michael Chabon, Peggy Taub, Simon Winchester, Melvyn Bragg, Bill Bryson, T.C. Boyle, Alastair Reynolds, Iain M. Banks, Joseph Roth, Kurt Vonnegut, Daniel J. Boorstin, Jodie Scott, Jules Verne and H.G. Wells. This list is representative, not exhaustive and is under constant revision.



I'd list some of my favourite musicians, bands and composers but there's not enough space. So I'll just say that, like reading, I'll have a listen to anything that comes my way and the list is continually expanding. I have a couple of tertiary qualifications.  And then there are those slivers of time where I get to write... sometimes. Just to round things off, I'll mention that I make music and had a main role in one of the worst low-budget sci-fi films ever made.
