Feeling ranty? Techradar’s just uploaded “48 things we hate about tech“, which enabled yours truly to cheer himself up by being nasty about things. Any I’ve missed?

My name’s Carrie, and I live in Glasgow. I’m a writer, a broadcaster, a podcaster and a musician.

If you want to contact me for work stuff, please read this page before you email. Thanks.

When I’ve got my writing hat on I write magazine features, tutorials, columns and buying guides; when I’m doing commercial copywriting I craft compelling copy for micro-businesses and multinationals for products ranging from spirits to speakers. I’ve written thirteen books, ghostwritten two more and co-wrote another seven, and I also co-wrote a Radio 2 documentary series. I love radio, and you’ll often hear me mouthing off on BBC Radio Scotland.

I make music in a band called HAVR, and you can stream or download our records from your favourite music store.
