Iain K. MacLeod

Hi, my name is Iain K. MacLeod and I'm yet another heterosexual CIS white male on the Internet. Statistically, a threat to you and a potential victim of heart disease, cancer, or maybe both.

🚽 Fun Fact! Iain (with two "i"s) is a name of Scottish Gaelic origin, while Ian is the Anglicization; both spellings correspond to the English name John. A toilet? No relation.

I was born in Sydney, Cape Breton and live in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, Canada with my family. I also lived briefly in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island.

Over the years, I attendend Chebucto Heights, Mary Lawson, Admiral Westphal, Sheriff, Sydney Academy, U.P.E.I, and U.C.C.B. I've worked breifly in retail (grocery and drug stores) as well as with Celtic Colours, Coast Publishing, the Atlantic Film Festival, Spectacle Group, and the Government of Nova Scotia. I write for fun and enjoy helping people with their inevitable technical problems because I consider it to be an essentitial way to provide emotional support.

For the most part, you can find out more about me on the following websites:
