Love telling stories, writing stories, and writing about stories in their many media manifestations. I am an artist and author of more than a dozen published books, including the epic fantasy sequence, 'This, That, and The Other'. I edit and curate the online arts journal, 'The Signifier' and write professionally about a wide variety of topics, mainly art, film, and folklore. Creative consultant in education. Family man. Enjoy a good cuppa and a wee dram. Also known as, 'man-walks-with-dog'.
