About me

SamHello! I am Sam Downing, which you probably guessed from the large narcissitic image up there with my name in it.

I’m a 20-something writer from Sydney, Australia. By day I work as an internet journalist (ie, I produce entertainment “news” and related trash for one of Australia’s most-visited websites. It is pretty awesome), while by night I am an aspiring writer of published fiction. If I’m very lucky my name will be on the cover of a real book one day! (Or, knowing where publishing is heading, an ebook.)

I’ve had blogs and websites for years but this is my first one with my name up there in the address bar. I write about my writing, other people’s writing, what I’m reading, and all other kinds of rad stuff. If you subscribe to this blog you’ll never miss out on any of the goodness!

If you want to contact me, go here. Or look me up on Twitter (I really, really like Twitter).
