And then there are the nights when you're wide awake...

My brain accelerates hard from one moment to the next, feeling the g-forces in all the corners, and each undulating high and low...

But you push on, as landmark memories flash past in a split second...

Life, and the race to the end...

I read an interesting thing the other day about not fitting in...

Tonight, I heard a creative say freelancing was a lonely career path...

I've always been a loner.

Only child, very few friends, trust my gut, authentic, and sometimes brutally honest.

Cheers.

ZUPPA ... 😁 #Morecambe #HereNowThis
One big performance treasure hunt around Morecambe West End... nerves disappeared, and I really loved doing the 'art monologue' alongside the fab Orla! Thank you #Zuppa, #LancasterArts, #DerelictArts and everyone involved! 😁

I love freelancing in the arts. Most of the time, it never feels like work!
Research trip today took me to #Showtown to the top of #BlackpoolTower and a visit back to #CentralLibrary. Everyone was so helpful, and I've smiled all day! #CommunityArts #HeritageArts #SouthShoreStories #OralHistory

Wooooohhhh!!! Looking forward to seeing the shorts! 👻👻👻

Open day for emergency services near the stone Jetty today, #RNLI #HMCoastguard #PennineMountainRescue and more!

A reflective return...

It was a brilliant afternoon at #LancasterPottery, as I finally got the opportunity to throw a few pots! Excellent support and tuition from the team there. Now I wait to see the finished articles once they are fired and glazed. Definitely recommend it, and I really want to do it again! 👍 #Pottery

#BlackpoolByTrain

I love train journey photos, angles, speed, and the double exposure effect from the reflections inside the carriage... Sun, rain, then sun again today... 😁

On the other side of fear lies freedom... or perhaps chaos...

I go my own way.

#OneSimpleLife

"One more bite food fest" this evening at #Lancaster Caste was pretty cool. Foods, beers, good company and a good laugh. 👍😋

It's the #Morecambe maritime festival today. Lots happening, and I'm on the train ready to go! Story walk with #bigwhiteshed first thing, then the #StoneJetty with #timeandtidebells info. If you dont spot me, I might have been drawn towards one of the pubs to listen to the Sea Shanty songs!! ☀️🌊🌞

Missed out this year unfortunately. Looks like it was a great weekend! 👍

Audio Editing 🔉🔊 is just another element of why my job is so creative and has such variety. Cutting, cropping, rearranging, adding extra sound. When it's other people's interviews it can be a challenge to get the right feel and the right vibe, but one I enjoy.
#FreelanceCreative #OralHistory 😁👍

Love #TheStoreyGardens down the road, I always know I have somewhere to chill out when I need a break from a screen. 😁👍
