Hello, I’m Richard

Greetings and salutations. In case you were wondering, Richard Cobbett is a writer and journalist and producer of many other things involving words. Outside of the third person, I'm Features Editor on PC Plus magazine, and a freelance pen for hire wherever words, puns, or bored millionaires with chequebooks assemble.

Most of this site is tucked away in one of those blog things that’s been pretty popular lately — a mix of random stuff that seemed like a good idea at 3AM, previously published articles, chatter about what I’m up to, and all kinds of other nonsense. All those other people reading this think I’m talking to them, but we both know I’m really only talking to you. You can also find me over here on Twitter, and in forgotten accounts on many sites I don’t actually use. If you’d like to get in touch with any thoughts, questions, offers of interesting work, or simply a ‘hello’, please do — my inbox is always open.

Goodness, what a lot of words. Here's a random snapshot from one of Richard's photo albums to break them up a little.
