Earlier this year I started writing for Platform, for the most part about music, in one form or another. It’s still not a real job, but it’s a start, and stop judging me. Tory.

Below I’ve copied in links to various articles I hope may be of interest (I also wrote about a lot of things relating to girls too, but you can find those articles using your own initiative). There’s a host of free music to download, in keeping with the saintly spirit of the festive period.
