Russell Payne is a writer, musician, artist, animator, filmmaker, vegetarian and qualified first-aider.
Known for using multiple pseudonyms, he argues that this helps keep his work fresh, ensures the writing stands on its own merit rather than his reputation. He is also the co-founder of the media production company Tiny Lapel and has worked for such diverse organisations as the BBC, Happy Madison, the British Government, WHSmith and Grundy's Ironmongers.
He lives and works in the spiritual home of Parkour - Cleveleys, Lancashire.
He is still trying to decide what to be when he grows up.
