Silhouettes on rocky shore
I’m a writer and musician, based on the south east coast of England.
As well as a showcase for what I do, here you’ll find ideas and insight, a collection of blogs written over time and still in progress, reflecting on aspects of culture, society, and technology.
I’ve made my living writing for business. I have decades of experience, in digital and print media. These are interesting times for commercial writing: AI is changing everything, but I'm pretty sure there's a place for real as well as artificial intelligence. We should talk about that. You’ll find more information through the menu above or the links below.
