The Way I See It… (The Ethereal & Omnipresent)

Find all additions to this series by clicking here! 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)

The Way I See It… (Good & Evil)

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. As an atheist, I always approach the subject a little tentatively. Not because I fear offending the religious; that doesn’t … Continue reading The Way I See It… (Good & Evil)

Five Things I Hate About Christmas

The old saying goes that there’s nothing as certain as death and taxes. In the modern western world, I think we can add Christmas to that list too. Once you hit October it consumes pretty much everything going forward from there. Weeks and weeks of preparation for one day. As a child, I loved Christmas. … Continue reading Five Things I Hate About Christmas

RIP Freedom of Expression

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

We Will Remember Them (Whether You Like It or Not!)

I begin this post in the aftermath of seeing a short albeit very provocative video on Facebook about how Remembrance Day, the Poppy Appeal, and the Royal British Legion are racist and should be banned/disbanded. I was going to post something else today, but this definitely takes precedence. First of all, I’ll go into a … Continue reading We Will Remember Them (Whether You Like It or Not!)

Traversing the Rabbit Hole of Depression

Depression is an issue that has dogged me for a lot longer than I’ve been prepared to admit even to myself. It’s tough to describe how it feels. It’d be easy to say that it’s a sensation of feeling perpetually sad and gloomy, but I don’t think that’s accurate at all. In my own experience, … Continue reading Traversing the Rabbit Hole of Depression

Review of Dan Brown’s Inferno

It’s about time, as a writer, that I reviewed the writings of another. I start with one of my favourite novelists and one of the biggest names in literature. Nobody can argue with the success of Dan Brown. He’s achieved what most of us authors could only dream to achieve. Not only does he leave … Continue reading Review of Dan Brown’s Inferno

Goodbye, Paul.E.Bailey’s World…

Just like that, the change has been made. Paul.E.Bailey’s World still spins, but with a different name. Let’s face it; there’s never been a less popular time to be an average, white man. Women hate us. Homosexuals hate us. The transgendered hate us. Muslims hate us. Hindus hate us. Black people hate us. Hispanic people … Continue reading Goodbye, Paul.E.Bailey’s World…

Paul.E.Bailey’s World–Destiny Vs Desire

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. It led me to ponder the question further on a grander … Continue reading Paul.E.Bailey’s World–Destiny Vs Desire

Paul.E.Bailey’s World – Dear Jupiter…

This world is a beautiful place. It has diversity. It has colour. It has life. When the sun burst into existence 5 billion years ago and created Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune, our parent star definitely gave the third planet on the list the most exciting role. Earth has so much … Continue reading Paul.E.Bailey’s World – Dear Jupiter…
