Publications
Over the years I have had articles that I have written, published and have appeared in the press, on television, the radio and on film.
I am afraid it never occurred to me to keep links to such things, or records of what I had written.
​
Since writing START I have ventured onto Twitter, which still feels very alien. I have encountered the world of the guest blog and online magazines and very occasionally academic journals. Here are a few of my more recent guest blogs. In due course I will place future publications that I appear in here.
​
If ever again people come to interview me for media appearances, I will try to save links to such things and place them here as well.
