I was born, I grew up.
I’ve lived in Wales in the UK all of my life, hidden away in the valleys and spending most of my youth adventuring. As I’ve grown older I’ve collected a variety of passions and interests, the main two of the array being “Creative Writing” and “Film”. I’m a teacher (when I can) and I spend most of my down time working on a pet project be it small or large.
Like my tagline says, i’m heavily influenced by Jack Kerouac and Aaron Sorkin, they are my idols of the writing world but i’m also influenced a lot by life, i draw on a lot of experiences from my myriad of comings and goings in the wide world. Hopefully one day it will all come to something, as my erstwhile paramour is found of telling me “it’s all material”.
This is me, my name is David, no more pseudonyms.
