May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
I am anxious, rushed, rambling, questioning – my usual scary, fucked up hot mess – but I needed to purge (and perhaps vent?) a little on the book. The first 99 pages anyway. IT’S NOT A REVIEW – it’s just my own feelings and thoughts.
I feel as if I’ve been a juggler these past few days. Well, weeks, actually. One of the first gigs I booked for attending this year was to see The Anchoress in London next month. From there it’s been a bit of a headache trying to get all the rest of it sorted. Mercifully, there…

Yet another summer date landed yesterday. I’ve never known Simple Minds to have such trickle announcements for shows – it’s really weird! Anyway, this one is somewhere near the French Alps or somewhere. I don’t know. I think it’s July? All the info as always is on the SM website and social media platforms. You…
This week. It has churned up things. I’ve wanted to write about certain things. Late at night, when I’m drifting off to the Land of Nod, words flow and I wish I could retain them. Remember them as they appear in thought so I can jot them down the next morning. All my best words…

I hope so. I’m going to do everything in my power to make it so. Negativity helps no one. It has to end. I’m gonna turn this thing around! (Always like to put his pretty face on as an ident – sadly, you’ll see my crappy one once the video gets going. My apologies.)
I keep the uni talk here these days to a minimum but today I’m going to break that to share in my results for this past module: A215 Creative Writing. I can’t share too much, of course (uni policy) but I achieved a good pass and I am happy with my result. I have one…

I am being a lazy, drained procrastinator today and posting a vlog post. Of course, it has run over an hour (just a wee bit over) so…if you have a free 65 minutes, you can see what I’m waffling on about (mainly jury service, my reason for not writing the post instead of vlogging it…
