Enduring enforced E.C.T and intramuscular injections of Chlorpromazine (Largactil) by the age of sixteen.

A (Hons) 2:1, Dip. H. E. Humanities, Dip H.E. (Open) with the Open University, a Certificate in English Studies from Warwick University and currently Nigel will soon be beginning the final year of a Humanities Degree in Creative Writing.
