Freelance journalist (Guardian, Mixmag, Dazed et al) and author.
I write comic non-fiction for Michael O'Mara. One of my books was a Sunday Times Top Ten bestseller (above Stephen Fry, but below Carol McGiffin / some misery lit).
I'm the Singles Editor for Drowned in Sound, which means I have almost certainly listened to more middling, bedwetter indie than you.
I also mentor at a Rock School, teaching music industry apprentices how to promote themselves and stay sane as a freelancer. I think I'm Yoda. They would not agree.
