About me

Hi.

My name is Alice. I like putting words together, ideally in an order that people find pleasing or entertaining.

I grew up in South West England, in the sort of middle-of-nowhere where teenagers spend their weekends drinking Smirnoff Ice in a field that also has at least one horse in it.  

I used to work in shops selling boat shoes and polo shirts to people who don’t own boats or play polo, but since 2016 I’ve been working full time as a video games journalist. In 2018 I became the deputy editor of Rock Paper Shotgun, a popular and respected PC gaming website, where you can find the many excellent reviews and serious articles about hot vampires that I have written. In 2019 I was named one of the 100 most influential women in the UK games industry. 

And, now, I write books as well.

After spending several years in London and Brighton, I now live in Co. Cork in Ireland, where I read a lot of books, make crochet animals, and play video games where you can set things on fire and make elves kiss. I have probably read more detective fiction and watched more episodes of Midsomer Murders than you.

I’m represented by Stevie Finegan at Zeno Agency, which is how you know I’m not making all this up.
