Good afternoon, dear readers! Well, the first month of 2020 is almost over huh? It’s been 26 days and my vision still hasn’t become perfect, so I’m about ready to pack this whole thing in and start 2021. This attitude has nothing to do with two movies I finally got round to watching this week: […]
Read more "Infinity mirrors"Good afternoon dear readers. After plenty of pre-deadline anxieties, post-deadline finger crossing and post-post-deadline relaxation, I am back in the land of the productive! Recently, I’ve been mapping a rough timeline of my life. The exercise started as a running joke between a few friends, one of which told us last summer about his previously […]
Read more "It’s about time"This time of year is unfortunately busy for me – it’s deadline month (and a bit)! Starting with a short radio play due today, which I’ve been working on for the last few weeks (not quite “The Archers” fare) I’ve also got a chunky essay, two portfolios and a workshop diary due between now and […]
Read more "Deadlines and fake lions"I’m really not used to writing scripts anymore. It’s sad but true.

Read more "Let’s make some noise"Happy New Year, dear readers! After a relaxing Christmas/ New Year break and a stressful few weeks of coursework and an essay, I am back to university and my blog. Lectures and my evening class only resumed this week so I don’t yet have the inspiration for any writing posts: hopefully they will resume soon […]
Read more "Overcoming the Parker Luck: A review of/ ramble about Marvel’s Spider-Man (PS4)"There’s two things I’m finding pleasantly challenging about my course so far. The first thing is the word count – we’re just ending Week 5, and word counts have gone from a steady 500 words per piece to a couple of very sneaky 700 word limits, as well as a few “500 words max but […]
Read more "Reasonable difficulty curves"So, a whole lot of life happened. I changed jobs. I founded a film review site with a friend. I started university. The usual stuff that makes one forget they really did mean to blog more regularly. My University course is Creative Writing – so from now on, the (sporadic) blog posts will likely be […]
Read more "Blog resurrection"Well, after such a sensational title, I should probably explain what I mean by “creatively insane” shouldn’t I? It’s said that everyone has their own idea, their own story to tell. If that is the case then I am no different to anyone else. But lately my story has been driving me mad. The original […]
