Rosemary Muntus

I trained as a geologist and have been working with computers since the 1970s. I come from a family of makers, and with a mother who was a trained artist and a father who was a draper, it was perhaps inevitable that I should end up working with textiles. I have been involved with higher and further education on and off since 1972, and enjoy giving people the tools to understand what they do better. I love computers and feel very happy to be alive at such an exciting time.

Fortunately for me Allan Scott, whom I married in 1990, is also passionate about computer design and is happy to provide me with the emotional (and technical) backup I need for this venture.

I have been teaching and assessing City & Guilds Patchwork & Quilting for the last six years, and for the last three years I have also been teaching a variety of computer courses at Morley College in London. During the last couple of months I have had a very patient guinea-pig who happened to ask the right question about distance learning at the right time. She started me off on this venture, and is now an enthusiastic student on the course.

Allan Scott

Born in 1952, I won a scholarship to New College, Oxford at the age of 17 and took an Honours Degree in English Language and Literature - with emphasis on medieval languages and literature.

After 8 years as Editor and Audio-Visual Producer for Woodmansterne Publications Ltd - and a series of industry awards for my scripting and production work - I started work as a full-time freelance scriptwriter (working for clients such as Kodak), editor (working on, and writing, a series of ground-breaking computer books for Granada/Collins) and author. I also set up the Asgard Publishing Services partnership with three other Oxford graduates.

I married quilter and textile artist Rosemary Muntus in 1990.

Today I am an experienced corporate speechwriter, scriptwriter and copywriter, using my developed computer skills in new media such as web site creation (including this site), multimedia scripting and programming, and advanced speaker support.

In my limited spare time I enjoy making music - especially early music, on authentic instruments - and historical re-enactment, to which I owe a happy marriage, good friends, and excellent raw material for my next novel (if I can ever get around to writing it)...
