About Neill

I am a writer, photographer, self publisher and digital marketing strategist. My work is seen regularly in editorial areas and also working with brands through the father and son team that is Winward Media.

Today, I’m realising that people want to learn more about how to live a more creative life. And also how to deal with the many stresses of our digital lives. I know I do.

My love of the internal combustion engine is tempered by the knowledge that the future doesn’t involve it.

The future is exciting.
