I'm Kevin Stone BSc (Hons), I'm a secondary school Maths teacher and I live with my wife in a village in the centre of England. I've had a love of puzzles since a very early age and I started to write puzzles when I was quite young.

BrainBashers™ was started in 1997 and has grown from a small website to one of the largest and most popular websites on the Internet. I receive no money for placing the puzzles, games and optical illusions on the Internet. My only rewards are the comments that I receive and the pleasure I get from creating some very exciting and interesting puzzles.

My puzzles have featured in newspapers, national magazines, local newsletters and blackboards all over the world. I have also contributed puzzles to many books. Many world-wide events have used the puzzles to entertain their attendees. True recognition came when I was commissioned to write and compile puzzles for a national UK newspaper, The Express, for six months. At the time, The Express had a circulation in excess of 1.5 million and led my local newspaper, The Sentinel, to run a full page spread on the site. I also wrote for the The Guardian for a short while. I am happy to provide a quote for puzzle writing and compilation for any media.   More detail...
