The Eyes suggested I blog a memory for each year of my life – mainly as a writing prompt, so this is what I’m doing. I’ve done, one and two already but three is a little trickier. As I’ve described I find my very early memories to be like small islands floating in a sea … Read More
I have tried to avoid retweeting anything with the ‘JesuisCharlie’ hashtag. I have not used it because I just can’t bring myself to respresent myself as a magazine that produced what I regarded, and still regard, as racist cartoons. I looked at them again after the shooting, and I still feel I was right the … Read More

1. To keep my mind and body healthy. 2. To write every day again. 3. To appreciate my friends. Start small again and work up to the big stuff.
My first memory isn’t really, I suspect, a memory any more. It’s more the memory of a memory. I have revisited it time and again over the past thirty two (almost) years, ever since someone when I was about six told me that they couldn’t remember anything before they were ten. That completely freaked me … Read More
The Pagan Blog Project isn’t happening this year but I’ve often found it a good prompt to get me back into writing so I thought I’d give it a go anyway (in anycase I’ve never managed to finish it so it’s my personal challenge for the year!) Previously I’ve written about Aphrodite, Apples and Altars. … Read More
