Cursed from a young age from picking up a copy of Lord of the Rings without proper authorisation, Jonathan has long pursued a career in writing.   

He lives nominally in rural Australia but prefers to dwell in either his own head or the internet, neither of which is any better.  

He has a cat named Biscuits who is far more interesting than he is.
