A hired pen for too many years, I decided to switch to proper writing a year ago. It's lonely, time consuming and highly unprofitable. But I like it.
I produce and edit Egopendium, an e-zine which sets history on its head by inviting great historical figures to comment, not always favourably, on modern counterparts who have similar talents or accomplishments.
Compilations from Egopendium 2011, 'Ten women with a past' and 'Twenty men with a past', have just been published as free ebooks through Smashwords.
