About me

Occupation Researcher and failed (as yet) novelist
Location Tunbridge Wells & London, United Kingdom
Introduction I am a boring commuter, boringly commuting to a writer/researcher position at a publisher of some description. I mostly write about politics from a quasi-libertarian standpoint but am occasionally inconsistent (for example, I don't really mind the smoking ban). I might sometimes post about literature, but it hasn't happened much so far, so don't hold your breath.
Interests Reading novels, getting my own novel rejected by agents, eating cake and drinking tea, being married, supporting Sheffield United, online gambling, driving to Wolverhampton
Favorite Movies Edward Scissorhands, Wall-E, A Night At The Opera, Spinal Tap, Schindler's List, I Heart Huckerbies, Tube Tales, Trainspotting
Favorite Music Radiohead, Dylan, various dance, metal and pop, especially about half the tracks from the new Guns N Roses album
Favorite Books American Psycho, Captain Corelli's Mandolin, Sons and Lovers, Great Expectations, Jude the Obscure, I'll Go To Bed At Noon, Harry Potter and the Deathy Hallows (and the rest)

The wicked backspin caught you off guard. How will you play it off without losing your footing?

I'd probably just stick my pads out and hope the umpire doesn't call it LBW
