Hello World.

For those of you who don't know me (although at this point I imagine most people reading this will actually have seen me at some point in their lives), my name is Michael Foster, and I like to write. I spend a lot of my time writing, and it's an activity I would very much like to take to a professional level. However, as at this point not many people have had a chance to read my work, I decided to set up a blog and use it as a sort of base camp for all the ideas swimming around in my head, and hopefully entertain a few people in doing so. I will be periodically updating this blog with some of the projects I am currently working on, projects I have worked on in the past, some random stuff I jot down in an evening after work, and whatever else takes my fancy.

So anyway, about me. I'm currently twenty two, fresh out of my Masters degree in creative writing, single, work in a cafe at Castle Howard, live in Malton, North Yorkshire, like to read, write, sing and play video games, and am a supporter of Tottenham Hotspur, for my sins. If you were to see my picture in wikipedia, you'd probably see all the above points as footnotes underneath it and get a decent idea of who I am.

But to more pressing business. I'll be updating this blog with a couple of stories tonight, and over the coming weeks add more and more as I get the chance to. They will range from short stories, to extracts of some novels aimed at the teenage market I am drafting at the moment, and maybe throw in a couple of random little skits here and there. I'd welcome any feedback you can give me, because, well, if I can't entertain the people who read my stuff, I'm rather stuffed aren't I?

Anyway that's enough for now, hope you enjoy.
