Hi, I'm Ant. I live in North West England, just a 'Ferry Across The Mersey' from Liverpool. I share my home with cats and rabbits.
I am a vegan, write science fiction/fantasy and am a scientist, having an honours degree in chemistry. Been in full-time employment since University. Enjoy trying to solve physics problems, from quantum gravity to the origin & fate of the Universe.
I'm usually drinking coffee, eating out, enjoying art in various forms or watching TV quiz shows. Not too bad at drawing, ok at table tennis, go to the gym; kettlebells, weights, cardio. I spend a few weeks a year in a cave in Spain!
I was born prematurely (have mild Cerebral Palsy) on the original "Star Wars Day" - obviously wanted to see it ASAP! I love animals.
Thanks for reading.
