‘It’s not the story that’s the thing; it’s the telling.’
I’d love to be able to take credit for that quote, but as you probably already know it was said long ago by someone who wasn’t me. I like it though, and the theory runs as a persistent thread throughout all my writing. After years of writing for zines and musical folk I’ve taken a bit of a swerve, and am currently developing my skills as a novelist, and if that’s the sort of thing that interests you then you taste a few samples over at my blog at http://lawsie.blogspot.com/
As well as being a writer I have also worked as a photographer and herder of words for marketing purposes. Oh, and I’m also a musician – I play bass in These Are End Times and ZEEB?
But what’s with the snowy snap?
The photo at the top of this is page is of a beach in Connecticut, I took it during a writing trip in America a couple of years ago, it’s also the inspiration for one of the scenes in my current work in progress.
I’m a friendly sort of fellow so feel free to get in touch and say hullo, I always reply.
