Writings
The guy's a writer. He's been and has the skillsets and writing styles of a journalist, a columnist, a diarist, and a satirist. He's written prose fiction and poetic fiction, he's written in free verse and metered, with and without rhyme, and he's written songs, music and lyrics inclusive.

Incomplete list of published works:

  • Broken Bottles: A collection of interviews and essays on the experiences of young people and children in war zones
  • Les Possibilités de Carrière: A regular column in La Depeche du Midi, a local paper in Toulouse
  • Erhöhen Sie Ihre Stimme: A short, informal history of Viennese immigrant music in the 20th century
  • Sauber Verbrannt: A waltz for someone he could have loved.
  • Die Mühe beim Gehen: A ballad for a friend.
  • Möbius Roundabout: A licensed Doctor Who novel involving the Tenth Doctor and Sarah Jane Smith; published as Alan Brixton
  • Triskele: A nonfiction examination of threes in Celtic symbolism, writing, and mythology
  • Names of the Dead: A study on the remaining works of Aneurin
  • No One Talks That Way: A song for an aggravating friend
  • Heitere Totentanz / Gallows Humouresque: A song for 'Kaye'
  • The Five Companions: A licensed Doctor Who novel featuring Tegan, Ace, Mickey, Donna, and Amy. Because that's not a recipe for disaster or anything; published as Alan Brixton
  • Borrowed: But really though fuck the Gentry.
  • You're Doing It Wrong: A Book of Teachable Moments: Wherein Alan Brixton rants about literally everything and demands everyone get the hell off his lawn. It is comedic, and makes at least as much fun of its author as it does every other targeted sin. The blog version is called 'Wrong on the Internet'.
  • Eisenbastion: a seasonal-courts waltz

Philosophy
The words of a living language are like creatures: they are alive. Each word has a physical character, a look and a personality, an ancestry, an expectation of life and death, a hope of posterity. Some words strike us as beautiful, some ugly, some evil. The word 'glory' seems to shine; the common word for excrement seems to smell. There are holy words, like the proper name of God, pronounced only once a year in the innermost court of Jerusalem's Temple. There are magic words, spells to open gates and safes, summon spirits, put an end to the world. What are magic spells but magic spellings? Words sing to us, frighten us, impel us to self-immolation and murder. They belong to us; they couple at our order, to make what have well been called the aureate words of poets and the inkhorn words of pedants. We can keep our words alive, or at our caprice we can kill them-- though some escape and prosper in our despite.

--Morris Bishop, Good Usage, Bad Usage, and Usage
