| Introduction | I am graduate from the University of Tasmania. I spent many years working in the spatial information industry; two of which were spent mixing it with the Kurds in Northern Iraq, as a consultant for the United Nations. I lived for twelve months in Moscow, acquainting myself with Russian life, enduring freezing winter temperatures, writing restaurant reviews for an ex-pat website and enjoying the cafe culture of a blissful Moscow summer. I now write full-time and live in Sydney with my wife and two sons. |
