When I’m not writing about frivolous and flippant things, I also dabble in writing about clever stuff.
I’m studying for an MA in Popular Culture at the University of Wolverhampton and have really enjoyed the freedom that the course has given me to explore my (admittedly rather niche) interests.
A few friends and readers have expressed an interest in my “serious” writing, so I’ve decided to publish a few of my essays online.
I’m intrigued as to whether a) anyone will read them and b) those who read them find them interesting. It would also be great to develop and debate some of my arguments with readers – so feel free to comment on what you read.
These essays aren’t perfect; heck, there are probably gazillions of typos lurking in them. But I am proud of them.
Read, enjoy and, if you like it, share it.

NOTE TO ANY ONE THINKING ABOUT PLAGIARISM: I don’t object to fellow students reading my work or even quoting it in essays (that would make my head ENORMOUS), but please don’t just shamelessly nick my ideas. It is so not cool.
