New Years Resolutions
I’m pretty pleased with the extent to which I kept the resolutions I made last year so I’m hoping I do the same with these. 1. Swim each week. 2. Write each day. 3. Finish a good manuscript.

1.What did you do in 2018 that you’d never done before? Got pushed on a roundabout by the Bonsai Kaiju 2. Did you keep your new years’ resolutions, and will you make more for next year? I mostly kept them, failed at some and I will continue to make more next year because I find … Read More
I have a strange relationship with cleanliness, though I expect that it’s a similar one to that which anyone who has had serious depressive episodes or a physically limiting chronic illness has. I have, at my most depressed and at my most fatigued (which have crossed over, one causing the other) spent days in bed, … Read More
When I was eighteen I went to University and spent a great deal of time curled up in Cornish Bloke’s room reading the comic books he got each week. All of my friends who did this (Cuddles and Man of Taste in particular) really liked two comics that I hated, one was Preacher and one … Read More

Falling in love, as this blog has frequently mentioned, … Read More
I have to admit I’m worried about the airstrikes. More than ever I am renewing my commitment to pacifism, it’s hard. I love to read about war and I play bloody LARP games that glory fighting, but they’re games and no one really dies or is injured, we just get to play at it. Always … Read More
In roleplaying XP is shorthand for Experience Points. They’re points that you get for doing things in the game and that you can spend on making your character better at things. Had a conversation today about the way being born into a capitalist society is like being dropped into a game in which money is … Read More
I do name the relationships people have to me, by naming them I indicate they’re of certain importance. Friends, Lovers, Boyfriend, Girlfriend. I perhaps imbue them with more meaning because it matters to me how the people around me are connected to me. Probably the most ‘me’s used in one sentence on this blog. I … Read More
I have to admit that I enjoyed turning thirty. I know that FJ agrees with me and I’m fairly sure that there are other people out there too who think it’s kinda good to be this old. I actually feel like I know what I’m doing a lot of the time. Do I feel like … Read More
