Writing
Below are some links to examples of my writing.
Writing and Mental Health
I often write for my mental health, as I find it helps me process things.
- I discuss this in a few blog posts, including How Writing Saved My Life.
I also write stories based on my experiences with mental health.
- Check out The Journey, a short story shortlisted in a competition by Mind, the mental health charity.
- I also discuss the inspirations behind that story in this blog post.

I Am Your Father
I’ve also written a series of blog posts about becoming a father during lockdown called I Am Your Father. Because of the nature of that blog, the topic of mental health comes up often.

Other Blog Posts
In addition to this blog, I have written various posts for some of my research partners, including:
- The CESI Research Project
- The Society of Research Software Engineering
- The Software Sustainability Institute
- The Newcastle University RSE Team
