A Bit About Me

Hi. My name is James. I write. I don't sing. I try and make things. 

I used to Engineer stuff, but as unfortunate as it seemed at the time, I became ill with a condition called Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS). It has changed my life, but out of it has come a passion for writing. 

I have a huge interest in technology and enjoy being curious. I tinker. I experiment. I get enjoyment from toying around with new gadgets (much to everyone else's chagrin). I am Buying Guides Editor and Senior Writer at technology website MakeUseOf.

I keep motivated. I gym (SPORTS BRO). I meditate (PEACE BRO). 

Don't be a stranger.

 
 
No matter how you feel about their tactics, there was something magical about walking through @extinctionrebellion takeover of #waterloobridge . We don't need to prioritise cars. Walking across a peaceful bridge, with London's cityscape all around, while an excited, peaceful community enjoyed themselves was special. . But it shouldn't be. . It should be normal. . @livingstreets  and @londonnationalparkcity are two of the many organisations campaigning to return cities and urban spaces back to people and nature. . . It is still possible. #extinctionrebellion . . . . #ClimateChange #ClimateEmergency #Rebellion #LivingStreets #AirPollution #CarFree #Walking #Environment #Change #Photooftheday #HumpDay #Wednesday #Nature #London #Waterloo #Takeover #Protest #Peaceful

The library of King Ashurbanipal, the ruler of Assyria from 668 BC. . The clay tablets were inscribed with cuneiform, one of the earliest versions of writing. . The end of Ashurbanipal's reign isn't documented, but the almost 30,000 tablets were still preserved in the ruins of Nineveh, near modern day Mosul in Iraq. . . #britishmuseum #history #assyria #thelibraryofashurbanipal #ancienthistory #london #ashurbanipal #cuneiform #writing
