Putting it simply I’ve really done a number on my writing hand. Or wrist to be exact. Not sure exactly what I’ve done to cause it but in my somewhat newish first aid medical opinion, I think I’ve damaged a tendon in my right wrist.

Something that work last night hasn’t helped with to be honest. Running around putting up posters and new promotional materials...

Something I’ve not really thought about before but just come to realise is I kinda have a little bit of a thing for Dystopian fantasy. Not the point where I’d call it a kink or anything but doing a little bit of a tally, I’ve got a few of them ticking around the back of my brain. You could say it dips a little into...

Not exactly around the corner I know but since my place of work is going to be selling the first wave of Halloween goodies this week, I figured today was a good day to get to thinking about my Halloween costume for this year. It’s going to be adding to a few items I picked up some years back to create a custom made fantasy...

I’m coming to the end of my managerial secondment, about two working weeks left before I give up the jacket and go back to rank and file. While it’s not been an absolutely flawless performance, on the whole I think it went well. Learned a lot, certainly. Now that I’m looking at the other end, I’m also looking at the future. And back to my...

Seriously…I should. I really should. I end up creeping myself out to varying degrees. Often the mistake I make is letting my morbid curiosity get the better of me and looking up an article or video on the Black Death or something. Now..it’s not the fear of getting sick that bothers me or prays on my mind. That I could deal with. More than once...

…mostly due a little amber nectar. I’m not one for heavy drinking or getting absolutely hammered. I’ve never seen the attraction in that. Yet as someone of a creative talent who occasionally struggles with a certain creative project of mine, I’m not above taking a little help from a glass or two of beer. Helps free up the mind and the ideas. And silence the...

Certainly can’t help that thought if I look out the window. Maybe not so much if I actually go outdoors. The sunshine makes it look warmer than it is lol. Still, brighter days are ahead. And I do love Summer, for a number of reasons. One, my birthday is only two months away, so I’m working to cut down my usually expansive list of things...

Not that life has been difficult or anything, just had some unexpected changes. Mostly a sort of promotion. Well…not quite. Better in a way. A secondment to a management position. The difference..well..I can’t get fired if I screw up lol. Just busted back in rank. Not that I’ve screwed up yet. I just have to not get complacent or cocky.

It’s a weird feeling really....

I’ve been getting nothing but congratulations on my new development secondment role and while that’s gratifying, it’s hard not to do well at something when no one is holding you to account over anything. Two weeks from now, that’s going to change. My fellow manager on Twilight will come on board and then we will have actual targets to reach and goals to hit. That’s...

I’ve been doing a lot of introspection recently and this question just popped into my head. There are things we do and things we feel and believe, but which of those are core to us as a person? For me, I’m a writer. That’s a given as not just something I do, but something I can do. My talent or calling, I guess you could...
