Twelve years ago today I attended a talk by Mark Chadbourn at Alt.Fiction about the business of writing.

Two years later, I became a full-time freelance writer, being commissioned by the BBC and had just learned that over a million people had read my article about the D&D Satanic Panic.

Never doubt the importance of going to events and meeting people.

Were it not for going to Alt.Fiction that day and hearing what Mark had to say, it would be fair to say that I would not be doing what I love.

2023 was a pretty good year for me. It witnessed several firsts for me, including my first peer-reviewed essay published in an academic journal, writing for the UK Games Expo and interviewing the head of the Defence and Security Media Advisory committee.

The past twelve months witnessed a lot of firsts for me, including my first peer-reviewed essay published in an academic journal and writing for the UK Games Expo.
