Frequently Asked Questions.

What does 'Ataraxia' mean?

'Ataraxia', my alias, is a Greek term that signifies the detached and balanced state of mind that shows that a person has transcended the material world and is now harvesting all the comforts of philosophy.

Did your tattoos hurt, and do you regret any of them?

Out of the current sixteen that I have, I can honestly say that the one on my stomach and the one on my back were the most painful.

I don't really regret any of them. In a weird sort of way, I find it very therapeutic.

Would you recommend a Creative Writng Degree?

If you want to develop your abilities as a writer then I'd say yes. Just don't expect to jump straight into a dream career as a writer afterwards. Things aren't that simple in the "real world".

Is it true you support two football teams?

Yes, I follow both Leeds United and Barnsley regularly. Despite them being rivals.
