About Me

Passionate about music and proud to be a bookworm. Self professed Americanophile Id have loved to go on the road with Kerouac, had a drink in a bar with Bukowski, experienced some weirdness in Berendt's garden of good or evil or wallowed in the counterculture of Poppy Z Brite's New Orleans. I have a passion for photography but am very self critical which is why its only ever going to be a hobby for me. Ive always thought of myself as having left of centre political views but what i really cant stand are selfishness and greed. People that know me think that Im strange but thats ok with me. Buzznet has been an e-revelation for me.

My Interests

Photography, music, indie films and London. This site has been a total inspiration to me, I dropped out of a photography course in college because I was told I wouldnt pass the science part of the exam. I didnt pick up a camera again for a long time until Buzznet users inspired me. Not only has photography become my passion but Ive also won national competitions and had paid work as a result of the site - live your dream!!
