Feeling reflective, as most people are on here, as we come to the end of 2022. It's been a big year for me. Two short stories and my first solo novel published - and I even did my first ever book signing!

Plus, I passed my driving test and got a great promotion at work!

I also had my first solo novel, The Mystery of #LucyWilson: Rampage of the Drop Bears, published by @Candy_Jar!

I also secured a deal with McFarland Publishing to write a book on the 30-year history of #Babylon5. It's a huge passion project of mine and I can't wait for people to read it!

Talking of #B5, it's been an absolute joy to discuss the show with my co-host Luke Winch on A Dream Given Form, and I can't wait to continue that discussion on the show's 30th anniversary next year!

So, yes. I've been particularly busy in 2022. I have an amazing supportive wife and family too and I'm forever grateful for everything I have.

30 years ago, my family was homeless, living in a refugee in what was one of the worst parts of my life.

Look how far I have come!
