At the time of writing (March 2017) I'm a 45 year old ex-Rocket Scientist (yes, really). I've been an academic for the last 8 years teaching Modelling and Simulation to a mainly military audience.
I've been writing since I was old enough to hold a pen (in my left hand - despite teachers' insistence that I hold it in my right). I've had some stuff published, links are in my author's page at the bottom of this section.
I have no real talent for art/drawing but can sometimes do what I want to do via a computer - I did take it to an extreme when I was 14 when I wrote an art package for my Commodore 64, just so I could draw...
I love to find inspiration for my stories in the work of others, which is why I joined DeviantArt in the first place.
I like to comment - there is so much amazing work on this site and so much of it goes unnoticed. If I see your work and I like it, and it is uncommented, I will leave you a comment...
