| Introduction | I joined the army at the age of seventeen after pretty much dropping out of college. Lets just say I didnt do very well on my mock exams! Funnily enough, though, it actually worked out alright for me in the end. Ive been in the army for 12 years, having served several tours in iraq and afghanistan. I'm now a sergeant, having just returned from training young infantry recruits in catterick for the past 2 years. During my time in the army I have still occasionally taken time to enjoy an old childhood hobby, writing science fiction. I have recently had the honour of publishing my second novel online, which is why I have my blog to get the word out and make it easier to find. I hope that there are people out there who will enjoy my work, and who knows, I might even write more! |
| Interests | This might sound a bit wierd but I love my job! I also love to read and write science fiction in my free time, as well as fitness. I aim to run five miles cross country in under 35 mins by the end of this year! |
| Favorite movies | Im pretty nostalgic, so I love all my old childhood favourites, indiana jones, james bond and die hard. Im quite excited about getting to watch total rekall, and disgruntled at missing promethius on the big screan, damn you wife! |
| Favorite music | Im very easy with music, ill listen to near enough anything depending on my mood. Dance music is great for running, rock is best for the gym (never for driving- NEVER) classical is best for driving because it keeps me calm! |
| Favorite books | I love arthur c clarke's Rama, especially the earlier books. Absolutely facinating. |
