Rowan Kipton

Rowan Kipton was born in Yorkshire in 1983 and had a childhood in Wales; enjoying long adventures in wild lands, climbing ancient trees, swimming in rivers, snooping around old ruins and scaling castle walls. From a young age these places ignited a wish to tell stories, which was only exacerbated by playing computer games instead of doing homework (and as an adult: more games, no homework!).

Rowan loves lame jokes, various biscuits and old stuff (including owning a weird collection of 80s and 90s games on the Amiga, an old tiny Care Bear – half chewed by a dog – a German game of Kniffel, and a teacup that, legend has it, was once used on a Royal train).

Can be found drinking excessive amounts of tea, scribbling words on paper with a fountain pen (scribbles often unreadable) and staring at clouds.
