Well back in the UK going through a draw in my filing cabinet called ‘Writing’. I have to do something about it – as in finish each of these projects. So here we are; 1. “Trans-Uranic Elements: The Dark Side of Uranus”. This one is typed up in draft and I am slowly editing toContinue reading “Writing Resolutions”

New Year – Resolution!
I set myself a task for this week. Speed march from home, down to River Orwell, back up through Orwell Country Park then home – almost 4 miles. Did it yesterday; shin splints within the first mile; completed in 55 minutes. I was in regulation Army Boots and carrying a day pack so quite pleasedContinue reading “New Year – Resolution!”
Dreams
This is where I will go to write full time. Spain. Will Ouroboros be there? As it was in the beginning…
First review – Joni was right
“You don’t know what you got till it’s gone…” Almost at the end of my first year in Kazakhstan. The snow is back; it’s -16 Celsius outside. The water in the mop bucket froze on the balcony – the enclosed balcony. It’s been a year of ups and downs. Big things – I got divorcedContinue reading “First review – Joni was right”

Kazakhstan Winter – fantastic
Winter arrived overnight in Almaty. I am reminded of some Tolkien Bilbo’s Song of Winter When winter first begins to bite and stones crack in the frosty night, when pools are black and trees are bare, ’tis evil in the Wild to fare. Here are two views from my apartment taken one week apart.
DC Jason Beavers Yoga Theory.
I’ve not added much personal writing recently so I thought I’d share a bit of philosophy from Detective Constable Jason Beaver. This is an extract from ‘Inspector Flaange and the Barking Spider’. ———- “How are you feeling then boss?” asked Beaver as he sat devouring a delicious Cornish pasty. “Feeling the tension, Beaver. Not sureContinue reading “DC Jason Beavers Yoga Theory.”
Love
“I used to lie in bed with women I loved and have sex. With this woman I lie in bed and have love. Everything we do is Love. Even sex.” Ivor Cutler from the Album Dandruff
Free Money – for Peace of Mind, Books Galore, Tasha and I.
Being creative on low energy is either deep joy or hellish torture. Working twelve hours a day then writing a blog – I am a star. Yet it is time to look for something else, an alternative source of income so I can devote more time to creating Tall Stories – Fairy Hanny needs aContinue reading “Free Money – for Peace of Mind, Books Galore, Tasha and I.”
