About the author

Oliver A. Kenton

Before any of this, Oliver spent most of his working life in design. Aside from a brief stint as an Animation Renderer on the animated film ‘Granpa’, and a poverty-making experiment as an art student in Sheffield, he worked his way through a bunch of ad and design agencies you’ve probably never heard of until, eventually, he ended up as a Creative Director for a global digital consultancy. Then finally, after thinking about it for twenty-five years and a few false starts, he wrote a book.

In the other bits of his life, Oliver rattles around north-west London trying to keep up with the (mostly) loving demands of his family and the other strange animals that live in his house. If there’s any time left, he avoids dairy, goes for the odd run, and walks his dog Indiana (yes, yes, that Indiana). Occasionally he bakes sourdough bagels from scratch.
