I start this post at the halftime break during Stockport County’s final game of the regular league season on 27th April 2019. I’m presently sat on the sofa at my mum and dad’s house with my headphones in listening to the commentary (provided by Chris Ridgway and stalwart Jon Keighren on 104.9 Imagine FM) from … Continue reading My, Oh My, To Be a County Fan…
I won’t say I don’t have a specific topic to talk/whinge about; there are always things I can delve into and cast my much-valued opinion on. However, this last month has been very writing-orientated due primarily to my rewriting of a large portion of my manuscript, which, if you didn’t know already, is entitled The … Continue reading Living the Dream Part 26 (Riding the Wave)
There was a post recently on a Facebook fiction writers group that I’m part of. The poster asked if we thought we were inherently destined to be writers or was it more a case of choosing that path out of curiosity. A good question.

I recently purchased the game Dead Island for my … Continue reading Paul.E.Bailey’s World – Calling Papua New Guinea

I purposely avoided reading most such things here on WordPress as I often don’t buy into the whole ‘new year, new me’ time for self-reflection thing. I think … Continue reading Paul.E.Bailey’s World – Five Memorable Things That Happened In 2016
The following is a story of a young man. Unlike the stories I’ve shared on WordPress before today this one is non-fiction. It’s a story of a period in my life that was filled with equal parts of victorious pleasure and lonely pain. A tough period that wielded great success. That success was perhaps part … Continue reading Paul.E.Bailey’s World – The Loser That Always Won: My Swimming Story Part 1
Okay, firstly I would like to state that the title refers to my personal preferences and isn’t a generalisation. Football will never die. The only thing that could possibly kill it is an extinction level event! No, the title is very much an affair of the heart for me. For years football has been the … Continue reading Paul.E.Bailey’s World – The Olympics That Might Just Have Killed Football
