How do you hope your work will affect its audience? Hopefully make them smile – a chuckle would be nice.
What makes you decide to create your work? My education mainly – most of my writing comes from essays or assignments from school/college/university.
What successes have you had so far? I passed my cycling proficiency and was toilet monitor at primary school.
What was the first creative thing that you ever did? At around the age of four I designed some form of helicopter using Lego and told my parents my intended career path to become an inventor – as yet unachieved.
What makes you creative? A good imagination. I prefer my twisted little world to the twisted big world that we live in.
What inspires you? We live in a country whose literature is second to none – but seemed to study all the c**p novels and poems for my education.
Much of my inspiration comes from not liking what I was reading and wanting to write something for my own entertainment. If others like it then all the better!
Who inspires you? Terry Pratchett, Eddie Izzard, Very odd friends with equally odd ideas.
What are you trying to achieve? Just writing for my own amusement but it would be nice to get something published – not holding my breath though.
Do you collaborate? Not as yet but would be prepared to bounce ideas of someone else.
Ignoring money and all of life’s woes, what would you want to be? I would like to run my own business/es of some sorts. Not sure what but I have a few ideas.
Accepting the need for money and all of life’s woes, what do you want to be? As above!
What’s the most amazing thing you’ve ever seen / heard / experienced? My trip to Australia was pretty amazing. Highlights included journeying around Tasmania (Do it if you can!), scuba diving on the Barrier Reef for my training was very cool! Gambling my money away at the wonderful Crown Casino was definitely a fun (if foolish) experience.
Who/what is your nemesis and why? Choc Ices – See poem
