CURRENT MISSION writing I'm not sure what and teaching some of the same. ABOUT ME Find myself working in Loughborough, living in Nottingham, and not expecting either of these to last for too long. I live with my partner Rebecca and our cat, Humboldt. For a living I teach English & on the side some academic research & writing. I finished a PhD a couple of years ago and now happily scratch around looking for the next thing, trying to keep learning wherever I can, whatever I can. PHILOSOPHY If the world were simple, word would have gotten around. / Growth isn't the only option.
