Introduction

Hello, my name is Tom Ashton.
I'm a third year Creative Writing student, co-head editor of the creative writing magazine 'The Writer's Quibble' and an aspiring author.
Mostly, I write transgressive fiction with elements of dark humour but i've also been known to write horror, thriller and fantasy. I'm also technically a published poet.
Furthermore, I recently a received a 'First' for a radio script I wrote, which has encouraged me to experiment in different areas.
On this blog you can expect to find my opinion columns, essays and reports as well as poetry and lots of prose.

Please leave me some feedback, in the comment boxes at bottom of each article as it is crucial to me as a writer and therefore greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Progress Report

Yesterday, I locked horns with the ruthless God of Formatting!!! 
I'd already written my script on Microsoft Word and it turned out that Celtx had no import function; you had input each line of individually. 
Maddening, though not as maddening as having to format on Word; which took two and a half hours, due to some troublesome border lines that refused to be deleted.  
(Type three *'s, start a new paragraph then try to delete the horizontal line, it creates.)

All done now, if a bit behind schedule and a long day of sound editing ahead.

Fingers crossed, the sound will be done by tomorrow. 

Onwards!
