User:Thoughtcat

I am a web developer, amateur writer and guitarist. I was born in London in 1971.

I have a blog at blog.thoughtcat.com, and developed and maintain russellhoban.org, a comprehensive site dedicated to the life and work of novelist Russell Hoban.

Many years ago I published poetry in various small magazines and in early 2004 completed a novel which was shortlisted for a competition called Search for the Great Reads. Highlights of a wayward CV include organising the 2005 Russell Hoban Some-Poasyum, the first international fan convention for the novelist, interviewing "The Graduate" author Charles Webb, and teaching myself Drupal, which I've used to build a variety of websites (see portfolio).

Wikipedia articles I've made edits to, although not for many years, include Hoban, Webb, Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page, Cream, Lowell George, Brian Patten, Dan Rhodes, and Leonard Cohen.
