ABOUT ME

I have nothing to offer anyone except my own confusion (to quote a famous someone).
I'm currently studying Photographic History at the MA level in Leicester - that is, breathing archive dust, handling photos and writing about them. I'm hoping to study literature in the US & get lost in the surreal American desert someday.

Interests

visual silence and words words words, written words. photography and old cameras. scribbling random pseudo-poetical nonsense in my journal, on my blog, on napkins and pieces of paper.
