Story Teller
Welcome to the Biography of the Steam Powered Story Teller
This is a short biography of myself Andrew Turner, a.k.a. The Steam Powered Story Teller, to give you an idea who or what I am.I am unremarkable man and geek for which life certainly did really start at forty and I have never looked back to the dark years before. I am growing into my dotage though with the aim of growing old disgracefully and irreverently.Over past decades life has changed for me greatly I have found a partner for life who has introduced me to the pleasure of owning dogs especially Springier Spaniels. I have finally learnt to live with my depression and now my anxiety which has made life a lot easier in the end.The biggest battle I had to fight is the battle with a tumour which I was diagnosed a few years ago. I am still currently fighting its return but at the moment everything is on course to beating it. It has had the largest and profound effect on my life as I now don’t live in the fear any more so I can finally start to live my life.Finally the name The Steam Powered Story Teller comes from the fact that I recently discovered Steampunk and I have a passion for tabletop Role-Playing which for most of my adult life has kept me sane through the dark times. Role-Playing has always allowed me to keep my imagination and creatively exercised and active.In summary I am a proud Dreamer and Idealist who looking forward to an old age full of new experiences and opportunities who still has to learn to let go of baggage of the dark years of my life.I am also a traveller of fantasy, real and virtual worlds.
