My name is Suzanne Fleming. On my better days, I am a radical thinker, a lucid and stable activist, optimistic and hardworking. For a living, I help write blogs, market video games, and bake bread. I run a blog, fittingly entitled Procrastination. I run a small webdesign business, entitled Monochrome Rainbow. I contribute articles to the gaming blog Girl's Don't Game, and to the blog Write the Game under the nom de plume of Keira Peney.

I live a thoroughly modern lifestyle: I make my living from the internet, and work from home with the exception of my part time job at the bakery. I am part of the global marketplace, I am engaged to someone from a foreign country, I religiously read my RSS feeds, and I am an advocate of personal development. Despite this, I often suspect that there is a certain lackluster hole at the centre of the current culture. Fractured family units, pervasive socially acceptable violence, unwinnable wars on abstract concepts, and a non democratically elected leader in the UK has made me realise we are facing a crisis. Throw in global warming, rampant human greed, the exploitation of entire countries, and widespread religious fundamentalism, and you'll understand why on my bad days I become apathetic, hopeless, and lazy.

Like many people, I am trying to marry my personal ethics with my work, my beliefs with my way of life. I am seeking a simpler, less material existence, with a focus on good food, social time with friends and family, and enjoyable hobbies. The world is constantly changing, and it is our choices that determine if the change is for the better or the worse.
