Born and raised in Toronto, Ontario, Paul is a professional writer -- computer manuals to pay the bills and science fiction for pocket money. He has read entirely too many history books.

My main areas of expertise are baseball history and analysis, "alternative" music from the 1970s to the present, astronomy, and world history (particularly British Empire history from about 1600-1914). Since all but the last seem to be in good hands already, I've been concentrating on historical Wikarticles:

• History of Scotland

• Duke of Marlborough

• Eugene of Savoy

• War of Spanish Succession

• Glorious Revolution

• Isambard Kingdom Brunel

• Sir Walter Scott

• James Hutton

• William of Orange

• George Stephenson

...as well as a bunch of smaller articles hanging off these. When I'm feeling less ambitious I stick to alternative music:

• The Clash

• Talking Heads

• The Pogues

• Jonathan Richman

• Pixies

I've also tidied up a few articles about groups whose identities will remain anonymous since I'd rather not admit I know all about them....
