I live and work in Dundee. Scotland.

I am married to Ross and together we enjoy dry humour, eating well and making up stories about what we will do in the future. Our son, Leo, was born in summer 2017.

I am a proud lefty, bleeding-heart, hand-wringing liberal who thinks that everyone is equally entitled to kindness. Even when it’s very challenging. Actually, especially when it’s really challenging.

This is my personal blog where I write about whatever has inspired me to write. A theme that runs throughout my writing and life is, time. Spending it wisely, with the people that matter, not having enough of it and valuing it. I might write reviews about a great place to spend time, what I did with my time that weekend and what I am saying no to because it’s a waste of our time.

In a better world we would read more, write more and worry about the small things less. It’s what I aspire to. It’s also a far better use of my time.
