There's Something About Cadi

I'm Cadi, your friendly neighbourhood purple dragon of indecision (every town needs one). I've been a YWSer since autumn 2011.

I'm an Real Life Adult in that Big City in the south of England (the bit where it doesn't rain all the time), where I tell computers what to do for a living. (I used to study Computer Science, helpfully defined by university admissions as "the science of computing".)

When I'm trying to avoid work, I usually find myself sat on the internet avoiding the decision of what to do with my time. (Mostly Twitter. No, entirely Twitter.) I'd love to craft masterpieces of fiction, photography, conlanguage, cookery and sketch, but that would require putting down my phone and deciding to what to apply myself.

If you'd like a review, throw me some fiction - short stories or first chapters for preference. If you want to win my heart, bring me Douglas Adams and a Tolkien conlang. Or chocolate. Chocolate's always good.


Interests

Writing, photography, drawing, conlangery, / cooking, spec fiction and puns. / Filling in profiles with poetic rhythm-ery, / 'cause that's just what I think is fun.

Occupation

Software Engineer and Master Procrastinator


What really knocks me out is a book that, when you're all done reading it, you wish the author that wrote it was a terrific friend of yours and you could call him up on the phone whenever you felt like it. That doesn't happen much, though.
