Biography
R. J. Davnall has been telling stories all his life, and thus probably shouldn't be trusted to write his own bio. Besides writing, he's currently trying to prove that the physical world is an illusion (in order to earn his PhD thesis). Penny Lane is in his ears and eyes, and frequently on his brain, which is the price he pays for living on one of the most famous streets in the world. He plays piano and Minecraft, and occasionally remembers to eat and sleep.
