Let's not pretend they aren't tasty. - A camera
I'm a Scot who takes pleasure from heavy typing sounds, and thus writing is an appropriate catalyst with which to indulge in this obscure hobby. I am currently based in Glasgow, and enjoy writing on topics such as art, travel, cinema, gaming and music.
Ideally in the future I would like to get involved in publishing, print journalism or broadcasting. Failing that, I'd probably like to work somewhere musty and quiet with old, leather-bound books or boiled sweets kept in jars on the shelves.
