I hold an MA in Creative and Life Writing from Goldsmiths, University of London. I have taught Flash Fiction at Reading University. I write satire, fiction, songs and poetry. I have many poems and short stories published in Eclectica, Verbsap, Surprising Stories and many others. My novel is Tony Blair: The Wilderness Years (Booksurge 2005 / Lulu 2006). My poetry collection is What You Will See (Gatto, 2005). My podcast, The Friction Fiction Show, features Internet fiction, poetry and music. Hear it at www.myspace.com/thefrictionfictionshow.
