So what do I put this in this section? You either know me and I’ve told you about my site, or you’re a complete stranger and have somehow ended up here. Whoever you are, welcome to my tiny slice of the online world.

I write. I dabble in writing short fictional stories – mostly sci-fi, but now expanding to other genres - and have been published online on a few sites. In January 2010, I had one story published in paperback in an anthology, and have another on its way. I have big ambitions, good ideas, and I’m looking for 2010 to be the start of a highly productive period. I have been inspired and helped by friends and family along the way, and will be ever grateful for it. I will write under the name Andrew Males rather than Andy, hence the main reason for this site name.

I run. I spent five months training for the New York Marathon which I proudly completed on November 2nd 2008. See my blog section to follow the joys, the pain, the ups and downs and the ultimate satisfaction I achieved. I also raised over £1000 for a children’s charity Dreams Come True. I may even do this year’s, too!

I take photos. I have a keen interest in photography, and seem to take a zillion photos wherever I go, so will put the best on Facebook and link them to the Photos page on this site. Hope you like them.

I travel. 2009 was my best-ever year for travelling, taking me to the likes of Norway,  Japan, Australia, Madrid  and New York. See blog entries from February – May 2009 for my accounts of skydives, bungee jumps, horse riding, goat catching and much, much more! Looking forward to more destinations in 2010.

So, that’s me!
