THIS IS THE BIT WHERE I INTRODUCE MYSELF
I write words for a living. Among those words; I've done it for an alcohol alternative, Tourism Australia, The Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras, New Zealand Rugby, a Japanese luxury hotel, banks (plural), telcos (also plural), recycled plastic pens, not-for-profits, a bit of retail, a bit of government, and controversial cheese.
I've been on the jury for the likes of D&AD and AGDA. Also the Webbys, but that one was weird. I've tutored at AWARD School (pictured, I'm in blue) and shared my thoughts about brand writing in front of enough people it required a stage mic.
I like talking about TV, writing about writing, and doing little puzzles. I don't like making websites, but I've tried my best.

The whole novel is full of writing exactly like this and the Booker prize people got it right.
