Writing I love to write, actually I love to write fairytales. I guess my fascination with fairytales started when I realised that texts can have multiple levels of meaning, and can be inclusive and exclusive at the same time. The fairy tale is a wonderful means of conveying satirical information (e.g. Francois Rabelais - Garganuta and Pantagruel), so disarming in its simplicity but offering more complexity to readers in "the know". I have written fairytales to replay and record parts of my life, weaving in-jokes, places and events together into narratives that have given me a different - often happier - perspective on the things I experience. Due to a hard disk drive crash a few weeks ago I have lost most of the softcopies of my texts. I have included my most recent story as a PDF file here, and will more than likely be adding more tales in the future.
