SF/F/H preferences:

Well my favourite authors are Robert Heinlein and Anne McCaffrey, but then I grew up on Asimov, Clarke, 'Doc' Smith and Blish, which might tell you something or it might not. I read and enjoy the whole spectrum of SF/F/H, though I'm with Heinlein on having a strong belief in humanity and don't particularly enjoy dark visions of the future. Happy to review pretty well anything though and length's not an issue. I write SF, Fantasy and have tried my hand at Horror. I'm currently working on a fantasy novel as well as submitting short stories. I'm a believer in strong characters and moral issues making a good story.

Publications, if any:

Pre-internet hard-copy Trek fanfic. Competition-winning short story read on BBC Radio in the mid- 80s "Loose Drawers" Farthing Magazine Issue 5

Anything else you think would interest other members:

Diehard Trekkie. I'm British and live in Somerset, UK. BSc(Hons)Mar Biol, multiple IT jobs, HGV Class II, Clarion West 2003. I shoot barebow recurve, ride a motorcycle, have dabbled in multiple sports on land and water and am currently servant to a very spoilt moggie.
