About
I'm an (unpublished) fiction writer, but have had a variety of smaller pieces published in print and on-line.
I run a variety of creative writing courses at Wivenhoe Bookshop near Colchester in Essex, and I'm hoping to expand into other locations.
I'm a qualified Writing coach/mentor, and I help writers that are struggling with many different areas of their writing and their writing practices. I gained my accreditation from a course run by ARVON and NAWE, and I also have an MA in Creative writing.
I'm also a qualified Osteopath and work part-time as such.

by Buckminster Fullerene 2 years agoThats quite a variety..motorcycle magazines to book but would love to know more. I feel I have a book within me but would love to know how to get articles published in magazines. How are the three books going? -
by Agent Wayward 2 years agoVery intriguing work indeed! I do like the sound of that. My blasphemous comic work also exists on the premise of the past of the main character being something other than he expected. I guess we've all seen something of the darkness by our age. How long have you been living here? -
by Agent Wayward 2 years agoI suppose you could say varied...
I write for motorcycle magazines, articles on events, adventures as well as technical-humour as I call it!
More interestingly, (hopefully) I have three novels on the go. The one most likely to be finished within my lifetime is what could be described as blasphemous comedy with a message. Or something.
I'm feeling pretty good today, after a monumental evening with friends last night which culminated in an encounter with a genuine angel at Highbury and Islington tube station.
How about you? -
by Agent Wayward 2 years agoHello. :o)
I was far too interesting to reply yesterday. ;)
You seem to have found the interesting people, alice is cool and I suppose I might be described as interesting!
Welcome, I'm fairly new too and also a seeker of the interesting people. Looks like you might be one of them yourself!

by Weens 2 years agoI knew you'd find something that I didn't include in my message to you. Yes, it is like facebook, except there is one main wall. If you want to respond to something or just write on someone's wall, you get there by clicking on their name. When you are on their page (you can read up about them if you want to) scroll down to the message box, which is about half way down in the right hand column. Write your message in the box and then just press post. It will appear on the main wall as well as that person's page. If you want to send something that you don't want others to see, you need to send a message, and I know you know how to do that, If someone has written on your wall. It will show as a notification in a box near the top and under your status in the left hand column. Be warned that the message indicators are wonky. They will show messages between 1 and four hundred million trillion etc. The best thing to do is keep checking. The notification notifier is usually right though. Hope that helps. -
