About Me

Authorship is only one facet of my diamond. Or emerald (I like those) but Opals are my birthstone. The button below will bring you to a good many other facets, such as skateboarding, juggling, building, and coding.

Blog

I explore and question EVERYTHING here. I can go from cynicism about the human race to Mark Rober in 0.13 seconds. Interesting facts, ways to colonise the solar system, and perhaps what AI is helping and ruining simultaneously. Click the button to be entertained.

Projects

I’ll update my NovelWatch category in my blog frequently so you can know when the next book is coming out, as I do consider those a project. But there are all sorts of other projects, such as building my pet lizard a maze to navigate, coding new games, or building interesting things, Click the button to see all those projects and more. Or don’t, I can’t make you.

And, luckily, I only included the books that I read last week. I don’t have enough space to write a full list.

When I’m not writing…

Oak—X

Crepe Myrtle—0

Spruce—0

Every other tree in existence—X

X= Climbed, 0=Not Climbed. My life outside the Google Docs consists mainly of climbing trees, rocks, man-made objects, walls with small indentations I can grip, and peoples nerves. But mainly trees, rocks, and things that people say “Aren’t supposed to be climbed on”.

“But,” I respond. “If they don’t want people climbing it, why make it climbable?” This is a weak argument. Everything is climbable.

I enjoy walks in the morning, building whatever I have the materials for(although my “Materials” are anything I can get a nail through), and I especially like cats. A Scottish—Cat Person—Author—Skateboarder—Sort-of-programmer—Half-engineer—Whovian. Exactly the sort of person you’d want to read a book by. Hopefully.
