These are a few of my Favourite Things

To all you wonderful people who are sending me feedback and commenting on my posts...

Thank you!

Your support is one of my all time fav things.

I thought I would take the time here to just list a few of my favourite authors, musicians/bands... My influences I suppose you could say... And also what ever other stuff that just pops into my head.

Here goes...

I have love love loved the zany and thought provoking creativity of Sir Terry Pratchett ever since my uncle and aunt gave me a copy of The Colour of Magic for my thirteenth birthday.

Tad Williams has written a brilliant fantasy series called Memory, Sorrow and Thorn that has opened my eyes to the fact that a troll does not always need to be a troll and an elf can be so much more than just an elf.

Thanks to James for introducing me to Tool and Radiohead as well as some of the greatest classical composers I have ever heard. Thanks to Aaron and Hicksy for reminding me just how great the bands I love can be.

Markus Zusak your capture of the Holocaust haunts me... I must get to the end of that book...

James Patterson and Matthew Reilly you have seemingly perfected the art of the fast paced novel.

So many influences and so little time...

I need to note just how epic I am finding the writing of George R. R. Martin...

Finally my amazing family, my beautiful wife and wonderful children... My friends who are family and my family who are friends... You all influence my and inspire me in everything you do.

Thank you
