"Charmed, huh?"


I'm John Porter, author of the world-famous StarStrikers novels. What's that you say? StarStrikers hasn't even made it into print yet? Damn. Well, bear that in mind for future reference, anyway.

So as is befitting of a person in the position I'd like to be in, I write. After undertaking a major reworking of my first manuscript in 2006 and having my agent unsuccessfully attempt to hook me up with a publisher in 2007, this year I'll be self-publishing the StarStrikers novels. I'm also a fairly decent artist in my not-so-humble opinion, and in 2005 my doodles were put into print for the first time.

My day job is in IT, though I look at it as a sideline while I work on my writing, which I consider my true career. I also recently completed the first year of an Open University course in German. Did I mention I idolise Asuka Langley Sohryu and model myself after her? No? What's that, you say? You don't know who that is? Feh. If you don't know, you don't need to know.

"Book 1 progress report up now at http://www.starstrikers.com/?p=106 !" (6 days ago) me too!

Music
Lots of 1980s stuff and also 1990s. Generally I would say my tastes range from what you might consider MOR or naff (Swing Out Sister) through to the more contemporary (JAY-Z IS GOD!!!1!) and a little bit of everything inbetween. I have more Madonna albums in my music collection than any straight guy really should, which is to say I have EVERY Madonna album. Other stuff I listen to regularly: Kanye West, Linkin Park, movie and anime soundtracks, both Jacksons (Michael and Janet), Prince, Sheryl Crow, Chaka Khan, The Go-Go's, Belinda Carlisle, all kinds of stuff. I carry at least one MP3 player with me everywhere and legitimately have withdrawl symptoms if I have to travel without one.
Films
I never have time to watch many movies. All time favourite = Kiki's Delivery Service, with an honourable mention to both Ghostbusters movies and both the 1986 and 2007 Transformers movies.
Sports
Pro Wrestling, if that counts. Which I'm not entirely convinced it does.
Scared Of
Nothing!
Happiest When
Writing. And if you could get me a Pepsi while I'm writing, that would be great.
