Born in London, I grew up in Buckinghamshire before running back to London, and finally away to Cambridge. Since the early 2000s, I have written and produced a lot of theatre, but that has grown into writing and making many other things…

I also code! More on that can be found via www.bodja.com

Since 2003 I have written professionally for all kinds of contexts - prose, plays, short plays, short films, online and offline games and educational projects. Currently working on a podcasted collection of short stories...

Over the years, I have given talks and run workshops to a very wide variety of audiences, in a wide range of locations, usually around the subject of storytelling and its applications, but sometimes on other things!

The Noted Liar

'The Noted Liar' was the name of an award found on a medal in the long-since-demolished Pike and Eel Pub in Chesterton, Cambridge. The waterside inn would have been frequented by locals and plenty of river people passing through - fertile ground for a competition of tall tales. The winner of the medal did not seem too concerned about hanging onto it, though…

This podcast is going to be a monthly(ish) series of short stories, mostly written and read by myself, but I am open-minded…
