About
I’m a writer, poet and musician.
As a writer, I’ve published weird fiction in various different on- and offline markets – more details on the ‘In print’ page. I’ve completed one novel, which is about what would happen if we invaded somewhere a little like Narnia for its oil reserves, and am currently working on the next one, which is going to be a bit like ‘The Third Man’, but in space.
As a poet, I’ve read at various London venues, and perform with ambient metal doom combo Graan. Upcoming performances – both solo and musical – will be announced as and when they’re about to happen.
As a musician, I played bass with the Stella Maris Drone Orchestra. We’re now dormant, but we’ve put together an album that – when our producer escapes from Peter Gabriel – will hopefully be available to all.
I can be contacted by email at Contact [at] alrobertson [dot] co [dot] uk, or you can find me on Twitter at @al_robertson. You can also read about my professional life at my marketing and media blog, ‘Disappearing into use’.
