World War III: Be All That You Can Be
The Honest Book of Lies

| Name: | Old Mother Chaos |
| Location: | Dubai, United Arab Emirates |
| Birthdate: | 05-23 |
| Bio: | Hi, I'm Tim, and I write books. It's not much of a living -- only the very misguided become authors to make money -- but on those days when it all comes together, and characters are there in your mind showing you what they're doing, and the words seem to be coming from somewhere else entirely, just flowing through you like lightning... well, then there's no feeling like it on or off Earth. On other days of course, it's like banging your head against a stone wall repeatedly and hoping the stains form some words.
Have no doubt. I'm writing's bitch.
I also do editing, game design and the odd bit of copywriting.
I'm more or less English and thirtysomething, and despite extreme provocation, I do my best to be a kind, open-minded, honourable person. This puts me several decades out of fashion, but hey, feck'em if they can't take a joke. My imagination tends towards the wild and untamed, and if I don't feed it regularly, it gets stroppy and starts leaping out at innocent passers-by.
I tend not to fill this blog with lots of personal stuff. If you _really_ want to find out how my day's going, you're welcome to ask :)
Following a recent orphaning, I'm currently staying with my brother in Dubai. I don't know how long for. It makes updating this journal a touch tricky though, so posts are currently sporadic.
I will not stand for this
PS: My surname, if you care, is Dedopulos, and yes, my father was Greek. There's a long story there somewhere, allegedly stretching back to Merovingian France, which I won't bore you with here.
