David Logan
Born in Belfast in 1960, David Logan underwent neurosurgery in childhood, resulting in partial hearing loss. He left school at sixteen and worked briefly in various unskilled jobs before returning to full-time education. He holds a BSc in Sociology and an MA in Ethics and the Philosophy of Religion from the University of Ulster, as well as a BA in English Literature and Language from the Open University.
David has written fiction for the SF, Horror, and Fantasy small presses and has edited and published his own magazine. He lives in Carrickfergus with his wife, and they escape to sunnier lands whenever possible. When in Carrickfergus, David can be found loitering in coffee bars, staring out of windows, and dreaming up increasingly fantastical excuses for not going to the gym.
