What I'm doing here.

Hello there, internet. 

Before I introduce myself, let's start with the truth. 

The reason I'm starting this blog is to improve my writing. In the process, I hope to entertain your good selves. Cool? 

Cool. 

Now for the introduction. 

My name is Michael (Mick). 

I'm Sagittarius according to the people who believe that the location of stars and constellations at the time of my birth affects my personality. 

I work as a copywriter in advertising, which is the rock n roll of business. That makes me a Roadie, I think. I'm definitely not a rock star. Maybe I'm a groupie? 

Anyway, like all good "Welcome to the new guy in the office" emails go, here are two facts about me and one lie. 
I'm a lifesaver and once saved a man from drowning. He was gay and asked me out afterwards. 
I once thought my life would be ended by a mob of 10 year olds in Morocco. 
I'm a proud owner of Sting... Frodo's sword. 

And that's me very quickly. I'll save the juicer details for later posts. 

So until then, farewell! 

Mick.
