So, now we’ve deduced that I shan’t be offering my views on such songs as ‘Come on You Reds’ and ‘Whatever You Want’, … Continue reading The Way I See It… (The ‘Status Quo’)

For those of you who aren’t aware of this fact then you either aren’t paying attention to my writing or you’re extremely slow on the uptake: I am atheist. I am 100% atheist at that. In no way am I religious or even agnostic. I don’t … Continue reading The Way I See It… (The Ethereal & Omnipresent)
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)
Find all additions to this series by clicking here! For this article it would be pretty much impossible not to touch upon religion given as ‘evil’ is a construct more or less rooted in it.

The topic of … Continue reading The Way I See It… (Beauty)
For the first time in what feels like absolutely ages, I’m doing a LtD post about writing! *Faints* One thing that bugs me while I’m tapping away at my keys is always being conscious of shoehorning myself into a trap of word repetition. I absolutely hate it! If two consecutive sentences start with the same … Continue reading Living the Dream Part 24 (Crutch)
I write this piece in the aftermath of a rather sensitive event, but it’s an event that has really triggered me albeit not in the way most people have been triggered. If you live in the UK then you’ll be very aware of the quite shocking fire at Grenfell Tower on 14th June 2017 that … Continue reading RIP Freedom of Expression
