Hey there! My name’s Conor Daniel Swannie and I live in little old town called Hexham in the North East of England. It’s a beautiful place but, as you mighta guessed, pretty dull compared to most of the big wide world out there. I’ve just finished with school entirely and currently work in the field of social media. I guess I’m a lot like Peter Pan in that I really don’t want to grow up yet and I can feel the future dragging me forwards - so I’m kicking my feet into the ground and screaming :P 

I’ve got a lot of ideas about what I want to do with my life but the problem is none of them are certain - I go through various phases of thinking I want to be a writer, actor, photographer and various other occupations. The common link between those aforementioned titles sums it up best though; I don’t want to get stuck in a deadbeat job being just another cog in the system. And I won’t. I won’t settle for that ever. Anyway that’s getting a little too deep for this particular page so I’ll just round things off by throwing out a random list of things I like…

* Music, Film, TV (Brand New, Fight Club, Game Of Thrones - just three random examples)

* Photography (My Nikon D3100 is my current prized possession)

* Reading (Anything and everything but my all time favourites will always be Peter Pan and The Chronicles Of Narnia - my favourite authors are Nick Hornby and Chuck Palahniuk though which is a little more mature :P)

* Dogs (I have a dalmatian named Vienna)

* Acting (Yes, I like Shakespeare - get over it)

* Writing (Fiction and poetry mainly)

That should be enough to give you a vague insight but honestly I love talking to anyone and everyone so if you want to get to know me better than just drop me an ask, add me on facebook or tweet me on twitter - nothing you could feasibly do right now would make me happier than that :D

And if you really want to know about the deeper side of my life then my writing holds all the clues - http://standinglikeaguiltyschoolboy.tumblr.com/writing
