One of our pub’s semi-regulars told me about going to France to be a chef. He went into one restaurant and the owner said:
“The English can’t cook.”
Fella replied: “Yeah? What about Joan of Arc?”
Owner gave him the job.

I was stood at my road’s crossing and the green light took so long I started to imagine a trailer for a 90’s Hollywood movie called The Crossing Man and I was already on to the sequel, The Crossing Man: Final Crossing, before the lights changed and I could actually cross.

Sending out stories to magazines is like having a gamble on the horses whilst also breeding the horses in the hope they’ll win a race.

That’d be awesome. Set on a Federation ship but now with that Das Boot vibe.

It’s a testament to Paramount’s integrity that they haven’t done a reboot of Next Generation yet. But it can only be a matter of time.

The curse of living long is to see so many others die.

Sky News just highlighted Sweden and Finland within NATO and I giggled. I’m a child.

My personal mantra when it comes to using descriptions in fiction is ‘invite, don’t impose’. A red Georgian townhouse is enough; the reader will pour in their own details from their own experience, the townhouses they’ve seen or even lived in. Your readers’ memories and imaginations are your ally.

Every adaptation of Dune is simultaneously the best and worst adaptation.

The cleanest sweater I have right now is a Christmas jumper and so I’m wearing a Christmas jumper on Valentines Day. Punk as fuck.

Just in case anyone desperately wants to know what road I’m researching. I made a good choice I think…

Currently looking up the roads around the Millennium Dome on Google Street View for the short story I’m working on. Don’t ever tell me writing ain’t a wild and exciting life.
