I write short stories, am fascinated by synchronicity and love lavender ice cream. I'm an English Literature Student so reading for pleasure has become something vaguely illicit and therefore even more enjoyable. I like my books with a liberal dose of magic, my favourites (in order of preference) are Vladimir Nabokov's Lolita, White Noise by Don DeLillo, If on a Winter's Night a Traveller by Italo Calvino, The Summer Book by Tove Jansson, The Crying of Lot 49 by Thomas Pynchon and Beyond the Paw Paw Trees: The Story of Anna Lavinia by Palmer Brown.
