About me:
Once hailed as 'the fresh new voice of gay Manchester' by some publication or other, I have spent my career running various magazines into the ground. For many years you could have found me pretending that I knew all about the world of gay clubbing in City Life in Manchester which somehow led to becoming literary editor at Attitude magazine. You'll find my stuff right near the end of the publication by the gay sex chatline ads. My varied career has seen me eulogize about the merits of corned beef for The Guardian, foretell the death of Manchester's gay scene for Gay Times and saw me spend an unhappy fortnight as the Billingham Folk Festival correspondent for Metro. I've never been to Billingham, by the way. Currently, I edit listings for the Manchester Evening News and shelf-stack in Waterstone's. On the occasions I have been bothered, you can find my fiction in a couple of anthologies known as Comma and City Secrets, though they aren't generally stocked in your local bookshop. Failing that, see my blog at: http://www.sexandselfpity.co.uk
Currently spend many lethargic hours living in a council high rise in Salford that my parents refuse to visit. It is, admittedly, a bit of a dump and I have been mugged round the corner occasionally but we do have lovely views of building sites across Manchester city centre. I share the flat with long-suffering Iain who I met under dubious circumstances and 'married' whilst standing in a puddle in a circus tent pitched temporarily on a car park. It was a lovely do; the best man got locked in an attic full of dead chickens and later fell on a lesbian but I suppose you can't expect my friends to behave.
Have developed an unhealthy obsession with Una Stubbs for want of anything better to do and, should you wish, can usually be found in a drunken heap near the disabled loo in Taurus. Not that I am disabled, of course, just can't be arsed using the stairs.

Who I'd like to meet:
Dame Una Stubbs, Lesley Judd and Kirsty McColl though sadly she's dead so Alison Moyet would do.
