Yes, it’s true. I hate snow. I hate snow on paths, on roads, in carparks. But not on Christmas cards. That is the only place snow belongs. Not in Melton Mowbray in bloody November. Bah Humbug.
Thorn founded A Word with You Press in 2009, having Jack-Londoned his way across the globe sleeping with whatever country would have him, picking up stray stories along with way. A litter of dog-eared passports that have taken up residence in his sock drawer are a constant temptation, but, having at last discovered paradise, it’s not likely he will stray too far from his adopted city of Prague.
He has helped hundreds of writers reach their potential, including best-selling authors and award winners. He is the author of Fire in the Belly: How to write your novel with Purpose and Passion, Almost Avalon, The Boy with a Torn Hat and The Courtesans of God saga, and multiple anthologies.

I got an idea: move to Oceanside! =D I’ll even let you sleep on the futon!
I lived in the snow as a toddler, then when I went to school in Boulder. The first day it snowed, I jumped up and down like a 2 year old, and my bosses were wondering if they should have hired me after all. . .One said, “let’s see how long that lasts. . .” Well, the first year I was there, Boulder had the worst winter in over 30 years–and I got pneumonia. The second year wasn’t as bad, but despite the below zero temps and the wind-shield factor, it is rather pretty.
The Perils of snow!

Blimey, I would definately like to stay on the right side of pneumonia! But I will just never be a snow lover, too bloody slippy…
