My name is Stuart, and I am funky

While I may earn my living as a technical marketing writer and occasional tech author, over the past few months I've started writing something else in addition to the web copy, technical brochures and press releases that make up my usual output.

I am now a lyricist too.

OK, so I've been writing songs on and off pretty much ever since I was a teenager, but earlier this year I finally decided to start taking it more seriously. I am now working with several different artists, including Paris-based electro-pop collective Electric Factory, folk/jazz singer EliotE (who's just about to take off to San Francisco for a few months) and a gang of Belgian indie upstarts called The Next who are so busy making music that they haven't had time to build a website ... even on MySpace.

I've even gone so far as to record some guide vocals to help these real singers get to grips with my words - but don't worry, I won't be inflicting my voice on the unsuspecting (undeserving?) public just yet.

Or will I?
