Author’s note: The Alien & Alan (or, on being different)

February 3, 2020

As I start writing this, I don’t know exactly why I’m writing it, whether I’ll ever hit “Publish” or whether like most non-fiction things I start writing which are to do with me, I’ll just delete it partway through.

No We Didn’t, Dearest

Author’s Note: “Broken Worlds”

January 6, 2018

Well, it’s happened. I’m now officially a professional writer, without any other job to fall back on/hide behind. After twelve years of working in the games industry, I was made redundant over the Christmas period. Before you get out the tiny violins, it may actually work out for the best. I’d been taking on writing … More Author’s Note: “Broken Worlds”
