As the world goes to crap in appearance, how do you assess the real damage? Look around you. As you take your necessary walk to avoid contamination observe what the real effects of what’s happening. You can come to conclusions. You can ask questions. You are affected by it, but this does not mean you… Read More Tuesday

I love writing, and I love reading good writing. Watching a well written script acted is also a great thing. I like to listen to people talk, and feel that I have a good idea for dialogue. It is very educational to see how a drama is constructed, how tensions are ratcheted up, and how… Read More Monday

The thing about setting up a site is that you should use it, so this year I am going to get this thing running. I have several projects embedded in the site, and I would like to drive them towards completion, and have this be a locus for a whole bunch of various creative energies.… Read More Sunday

A good horror movie is subtle where it needs to be and punches where it needs to. I like Insidious and its sequels. Evil manifests in some very interesting shapes, and this one really does communicate. There have been some great horror movies recently, such as Hereditary and Suspiria, and they really do feel like inheritors of some… Read More Saturday

I recognise this in my own life, and that is something you have to do. Grass is… Read More Saturday

Regularity in writing is the key. Improvement comes through practice. What can get you writing every day? Making a game of it can help. You set yourself a challenge, and then you rise to the occasion, or not, I suppose. Poetry, prose, and non fiction all stretch different muscles, and require different kinds of discipline.… Read More Sunday

It is interesting how so many years of bad organisation can kind of stack up to make an unconfrontable behemoth of a thing. Picking away at the mountain of misfiled things or not filed things can take an age – but the big advantage is, once they are all cleared up, you can start to… Read More Sunday

Sure, this will come out Thursday, but then you get something Thursday too. Maybe. Regularity is a thing that I strive for and rarely achieve on a particular platform, though when I finally find a way to collate all my work by date, I am convinced there will not be many days that I haven’t… Read More Wednesday

It is a strange time of year for me – strange that the psychological lure of a new beginning is quickly subsumed into the longshore drift of routine, and you wonder if it was a just a pause in the spin cycles where the water rushes in and you have to tread water to stay… Read More Thursday
