Movies
The simplest way to see my movie favourites is to read my movie blog, The Flicker Project. I watch a movie a day and report back from the cinematic frontier. Go check it out... you know you want to...
Too many to mention, but favourite authors: Will Self, William Burroughs, Paul Auster, Ian McEwan, James Lee Burke, Rory Maclean, Bret Easton Ellis, Doug Coupland, Jack O'Connell, Chuck Palahniuk...
Heroes
William Burroughs, for the way he changed the face of modern literature. David Lynch, for having the guts to stick to his vision. Matthew Hoggard, for being the unsung hero of England's 2005 Ashes victory. Nigel Slater, for teaching me how to cook.
I'm a freelance journalist and author currently based in Gig Harbor, Washington (south of Seattle). My main publication to date is the Wee Book Of Scotland, although I regularly write music reviews and other journalistic endeavours. I have two full-length novel manuscripts that I'm trying to place with publishers at the moment, so hopefully more news on those soon! I've also just completed a book based on the three months I spent travelling around New Zealand, called 'Ka Mate: Travels In A Maori Country'.
