Being a writer isn't what it used to be • 13 November, 2024
I decided I wanted to be a writer in the late 90s. Would I still make the same decision now?

I'm the author of the award-winning novel What Ends, which the critics generally agreed was quite good. (Nobody was more surprised than me.)
I've also published lots of other work, from short stories, to a variety of creative and journalistic nonfiction, to book reviews and other marginalia across the internet.
Though I work for a web design agency during the day, I happily freelance on the side as a writer and editor. If you have a project you want help with, please do get in touch!
I grew up in Edinburgh, Scotland, then spent a decade kicking around North America, earning a BA in sociology from McGill University in Montreal, an MFA in Creative Writing from Emerson College in Boston, and working as an immigration paralegal in New York. I've lived in London since 2014.
