The Conscious Coupling
As I write this, I'm a few hours away from Heathrow Airport. It's January 7th already, but for me this feels like the true start to 2015. After six weeks away, I'm about to embark on a new job, and a new relationship.
This time last year, I was living in Pangbourne – a sleepy village between Reading and Oxford.

Of course the media fails to help when articles and movies on being single are penned by an army of pseudo-Carrie Bradshaws Read More
Sex Denialism Is At The Root Of Our Cultural Decline
There are many ways to describe the “essential difference” between men and women. You could refer to it as “yin and yang.” You could refer to it as “left brained vs. right brained,” which is to say “analytical vs. creative,” and you could even call it “order vs. chaos.” In all cases, you would be correct in describing the essence of the difference.

I set up the Mad Outta Me Head website not only to sell the PDF, but also to provide extra, in-depth looks at themes from the book. For example, there was a major prison riot during Christopher's incarceration at Mountjoy Prison in Dublin. He did not play an active role in it, so I move the story along.
