Introduction Chris Stanley is the name, and awkward introductions are my game. So, I'm a writer. This is my sweeeeet blog about that, with some random thoughts about thinking thrown in. Think of it like an album which you love on first listen, and then like a bit less every time you put it on. Try and follow me on Twitter at @chrisstanley1. Go on, punk. I dare you.
