Martin Skidmore: 1959-2011. A note from his friends.

My name is Martin Skidmore. I live in London. 47. Male, if that isn't obvious. One major interest is obvious here, and most of the others are western arts stuff, music and books at the top of the list. I write about these things, and more, at a terrific website called Freaky Trigger. I have no training in any area of the arts, and my only professional involvement was in the past when I ran a pretty good mag about comic books, and edited some comics. I'm simply a fan, fundamentally, and Japanese arts gradually grew in my tastes, and eventually I started this.

Feel free to email me if you have anything to say about the site.
