The Thing Is by Andrew Carter
Andrew Carter is a man in his thirties with a wife and child, greying hair and a tendency to go to bed before 10pm. His second book, THE THING IS, is a collection of charming and hilarious tales about all that went on before. From a childhood where he cheated in chess tournaments and tough kids stole his SNES games, he grows into an adolescence including dalliances with drink and drugs, attempts at punk rock stardom and an overwhelming desire to look cool in front of girls. Wanderlust takes him across the globe where there
ANDREW CARTER was born in Leeds in 1986. After graduating from Lancaster University in 2009, he spent two years working as a care worker for young people with disabilities. In 2011, he moved to Chengdu, China where he taught English in a secondary school. After a few months of struggling with the language barrier and the spicy food, Andrew relocated to Hong Kong where, despite a frightening lack of business knowledge, he attempted to teach corporate English to adults. Andrew is passionate about football, which is not ideal as he is not particularly good at it and suffers from the trauma of being a Leeds United fan. He also plays the guitar averagely, falls over frequently and has not yet grown out of playing computer games. Fast approaching thirty, Andrew is trying to make the transition from cheap lager to fine ale. He currently lives in Leeds.
