CarlNGraham Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 Keep meaning to introduce my self, but too much interesting stuff here keeps distracting me. Incoming data: Real name Carl Graham I live in London UK I switch between being a computer games programmer and designing microprocessors every now & then. Currently working from my back room doing iPhone games, writing science fiction. I go under the name of PetTastic on several forums, because I work surrounded by dogs, cats and parrots. At them moment I here to research and get help related on my current book project, and getting very distracted by other stuff:) Carl Quote
CraigD Posted May 18, 2011 Report Posted May 18, 2011 Welcome to hypography, PetTastic! :) We’ve already had some conversations in the threads, so I feel like I already know you a bit.

Somehow in approaching 4 decades I managed to go from a funloving Z80-based video game writing teen to a lab and exam room machine controller writing professional to a denizen of IT hell currently involved in some of the most boring yet stressful design-build-code-deploy project work with bureaucracy at every step. I’m still adept at getting very distracted, though. :) Quote
