After leaving high school I enrolled at the Marshall Street campus of Wigan and Leigh College where I studied English Literature, English Langauge and Information Communication Technology at AS level and then at A level.
In my English Literature course I spent two years doing extensive analysis written work about well known books and plays from various points in history. These include:
- Geoffrey Chaucer's The Nun's Priest's Tale
- Christopher Marlowe's Doctor Faustus
- William Shakespeare's Othello
- Comparision pieces of George Orwell's Nighteen Eighty-Four and Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale
- Brian Friel's Translations
In my English Language course I submitted the following written pieces:
- An in-depth look at how the satire, colloquialisms and general language by Sacha Baron Cohen's character Ali G is used to comedic effect in comparison with standard modern English
- A video game review of the first game of Namco-Bandai's Tekken franchise to appear on the Sony PlayStation 2, Tekken Tag Tournament, in the style of a video game magazine publication
- An informative analysis of the English Football Premier League's top contender's for the then up and coming 2003/2004 season
Website -
From October 2007 until December of the same year I created a Google website here in order to test my ability at typing and managing gaming and film reviews. It has been a great success and features some work that I feel would be good enough in publications and was some of my proudest work.
I now have joined Suite101 in hope that I can bring my talents for writing in gaming, sports, film and maybe more to you all. I hope you enjoy.
