Ryan’s eyes snapped open. The noise was very familiar, yet extremely foreign. He climbed from bed and approached the window then just as quickly ducked as he did and made his way back over to the bed. “George! George! Wake up,” he whispered whilst gently shaking her. She stirred and shot him a disapproving look … Continue reading ASAS: Survival of the Fittest–Chapter Twelve
The splitting headache made itself known before Ryan even struggled to open his eyes. For a moment, he had no idea where he was. He instinctively reached out to his alarm clock and fumbled around. On feeling nothing he pulled a perplexed face and lifted his head slightly to look. A few things hit him … Continue reading ASAS: Survival of the Fittest–Chapter Three
The UK in 2018 is a place of great variation. Walk into Manchester city centre and you’ll be greeted by an array of different faces, creeds, and colours; sights, sounds, and smells.

While it’s entirely feasible to tell a story of two … Continue reading Living the Dream Part 14 (Dialogue)

Nothing quite hit the spot like venturing to a random place at the last minute in the search of shits and giggles. Expressly because of our … Continue reading Paul.E.Bailey’s World – Embrace Thy Kingdom (A Real Life Story)
Waaaaaay back in the early days of my blog I ran down what five of my favourite videogames were. It was tough to choose five from the many games that I really enjoy and I have a huge list of potential titles that could have made that list aside from the five I eventually settled … Continue reading Paul.E.Bailey’s World – Five Biggest Videogame Let-downs
I hate politics. No; I really fucking hate politics! What a load of utter bunkum! I’m certain there are things that bore me more, but I’m honestly struggling to think of what they are at this particular moment. Whenever I see somebody posting about anything political on social media, no matter the format, I can … Continue reading Paul.E.Bailey’s World – Politiczzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz…
