Hello, I'm Ruth. I am a writer and blogger based in Hobart, Tasmania, although I'm originally from Scotland.

I'm interested in reading, politics and the environment, as well as countering misconceptions about what it means to live on a small island.

I hope my obsession with concision, good spelling and grammar, and clear, accessible communication will endear me to the Wikipedia community. If you're not a fan of Oxford commas, I don't want to hear about it.
