I turned 40 in September. The 21st September, first day of autumn. I love autumn. Crisp air, pumpkins.

I live in Coventry with my wife and 2-year-old daughter.

I’m a former national press officer for the Green Party of England and Wales (from March 2009 until Sept 2011, plus a sabbatical from then until Aug 2012). I’m a former lifeguard, door-to-door vacuum salesman, community radio journalist and freelance writer as well.

I’m a Canadian, but I’ve been living overseas since 2003, and I really haven’t lived in Toronto full-time since November 1997.
