About the Author

Stu Proudfoot is a Warwick graduate in Economics who decided against following his peers into the banking, insurance or accountancy fields, instead opting to teach English as a foreign language for many happy and interesting years. During this time, he met his wife Misato and developed a passion for languages which had been absent during his schooldays, going on to gain an MA in Applied Linguistics from Leicester University. Taken hostage by a number of social mediums once his children no longer wanted to play with him, his first foray into publishing is his take on how these now firmly entrenched channels of communication have so dramatically changed the norms of social interaction, as evidenced almost everywhere we care to look. Beth Masureik recently took her A Level exams at Hills Road Sixth Form College in Cambridge. While at present she intends to pursue a career in architecture, she has a passion for drawing and for graphic design, though neither can compete with her affection for her dog Maggie. This is her first published artwork commission and, unless she has to work with anyone as high maintenance as Stu again, it's hopefully not her last.
