Doof.

Hi there, hello. My name is Rebecca, or Becky, or Bec, or Brrrkakaka if you just like making silly noises. I'm a British writer in New Zealand. By day, I write online articles like the articles you see here. By night, I beaver away at science fiction when everyone else thinks I'm masturbating (joke's on them).

I have a 20-year publishing career spanning medical proofreading, financial journalism, and science editing. I created the content-based websites Science Me, World of Lucid Dreaming, and Sheltie Planet (if you think the global industrial Shetland Sheepdog complex is small, think again).

I'm largely self-educated or taught on the job, with a part-done degree in Biology, stalled not unironically by the desire to have babies. Speaking of whom, my kids are the heart of my world and are the funniest, most scrobliest people I know. Their dad, Pete, is a multi-talented giant who created the video game, Battlecruisers.

I'm developing a comedy sci-fi screenplay called Parallel, which follows a down-on-his-luck janitor at a physics lab who travels to a parallel universe and steals his best life as a Hollywood action star. In my spare time, I also enjoy drawing, piano, guitar, chess, amigurumi, and romantic walks along the beach with my Pomeranian, Rosie.

Hey, I just had a great idea! You should click this and see where it leads! I'm also delighted if you want to follow me down the street on social media:
