About
I started this website in 1996 – the wild frontier days of the web. Since then I’ve tamed it into my blog, filling it with writing (and photos) about the world out there.
One of my favourite things is exploring the cities, towns and one-dairy villages that make up New Zealand, and then distilling the experience into words and pictures.
I talk about the web, pop culture and writerly topics at events such as the National Young Writers Festival in Australia, the Public Address Great Blend event and on Radio NZ National.
I grew up in Hamilton (or thereabouts), and dropped out of a media studies degree, distracted and excited by the promise of the online world. It didn’t let me down. I lived in Auckland for just over a decade, where I worked in the internet industry, the web, then broadcasting.
I’m 35 years old and live in Wellington, not too far from one of those “Shoreline 1840″ plaques. When I’m not writing here, I work as a web editor in the exciting fast-paced world of television.
