Interview

What was your first job as a journalist?

Writing for The Lemon Press, the University of York's best (and only) satire magazine.

Who's your favorite fictional journalist?

Lester Bangs in Almost Famous (2000). The enthusiasm for music and introducing listeners and readers to new ideas is infectious.

What tools and software do you use to do your job?

InDesign, Photoshop, Gimp, iMovie in a pinch, and Python.

What's your favorite social network?

Twitter for all its faults has introduced me to lots of new voices worth hearing.

Who do you wish followed you?

Tom Cruise. Hands down.

What story are you most proud of writing or working on?

My interview with Tommy Wiseau. It was a fascinating discussion and coincided perfectly with me getting a license for us to show The Room.

What's the best pitch you ever got?

An interview with Charles Dickens using a medium.

When you're not at a computer, where are you most likely to be?

Going for a wander with a book in my bag.
