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.

Current Obligations


I do some work, on the editorial team, of a student creative writing magazine called the Writer's Quibble (I voted against the name), as co-short fiction editor and blog admin, so today i've been reading through submissions and proofreading. 
I understand how hard it is, for writers to compromise with publishers about their work, as i'm currently locked in a debate, with one of my fellow editors, about an aspect of a piece i've written. 

I also mean to write a second prose piece and an opinion column before the deadline on the 8th.
