About Me
I am a passionate serial reader of many years standing, with at least two books (fiction and the other stuff) 'on the go' at once.
I have quite wide ranging reading tastes, a mixture of fiction and non fiction including pop science and psychology, history, biographies, some SF etc. I have even been know to read and enjoy Lee Child and Dan Brown books, but that doesn't make me a bad person
;-)
I mostly live in Chester, the bestest little city in the world. You might also find me in Gwynedd, in the far North West of Wales on the edge of Snowdonia and the bendigedig* Cardigan Bay,
*Welsh for wonderful
When I'm not reading or thinking about books I may be employed in various places as a freelance Business Analyst and Technical Product Owner. Is it just me or does working
remotely from home seem like an oxymoron?!
All opinions, mistakes, confabulation, and pseudology are my own.
