Catching up
I haven’t posted for a while. I kept my focus on completing another task. When I have an idea for a book I sit with an old fashioned writing pad and a fountain pen, and I let the ideas flow. Sometimes when I look back I can’t read my notes as I was writing soContinue reading “Catching up”

We have been friends for almost 8 years now. She is planning 6 new exhibitions this year,Continue reading “Just do it!”
Am I getting stressed?
Ok I am back in the UK, and I have a temporary job as a College Lecturer, teaching basic Mathematics. Now I am looking ahead to the next academic year. What should I do? Should I hope for an extension of this contract or secure another International Post? Thailand looks good… Anyway, I thought IContinue reading “Am I getting stressed?”
