What I am for, and why I am here
The above title is, of course, merely to get you interested in this section which is about me, but not particularly in any guaranteed depth. This in itself is not a problem, since me putting too much information on here will lead to someone wandering around pretending to be me spending money I don't have. But I'm waffling.
So a little about me. I live in a London suburb in the near vicinity of Kingston-Upon-Thames. I am currently studying for a degree in Professional & Creative Writing and Media Arts at St Mary's College, Strawberry Hill. It is Douglas Adams and the Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy that I have to thank for my being on this course, because when I discovered the Hitchhikers Guide (unfortunately it was only as a result of DNA's death) in its TV form I instantly fell in love with it, and by the time the last of them had been rebroadcast I had already got the first four books in the Trilogy and they had reignited my love for creative writing. Adams is my inspiration.
To describe my taste in music as 'taste' is, some would think, very flattering. Although I'm sure that there's at least one song for everyone in my iTunes Library, there is probably no one in the world who would like EVERY track. They come from a wide variety of artists, a wide variety of genres and a wide variety of eras. You could be listening to Mozart one minute, then Limp Bizkit the next, with the next tracks being from Bob Dylan, Billy Bragg, Christy Moore, Tenacious D, or even from the album "Morris On". I'm not embarrassed by many of the tracks in my collection, although people tell me I should be. The reaon why I'm mentioning music in such detail is because music is important. It can (a/e)ffect our moods (I can never remember which effect / affect was which), tell stories, and more. It can also cost large amounts of money.
I don't really know what else to add. I'm never very good at these things. Hell, something will occur to me when I can't add it, and I'll forget it by the time I can. I tend to talk a lot though, often without much substance. Which is why I'm going to stop now before I get started.

"The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is a wholly remarkable book. It has been compiled and recompiled many times and under many different editorships. It contains contributions from countless numbers of travellers and researchers."
