Last Minute Mindset
28th February 2021

It’s not uncommon for humans to leave things to the last minute.
Essays, bill paying, making a decision.

50 – Gamifying Your Life
23rd February 2021

The big corporations find it useful.
Gamifying us for their benefit.
Taking control for ourselves using the same tools should be possible.

49 – To Keep Or Not To Keep?
23rd February 2021

It’s funny that writing about throwing away writings made it clearer in my mind just how long it took between my first desires of becoming a writer, and actually committing to giving it a real go.

WHO AM I?

I am a writer.
Formerly a master procrastinator that dabbled in many artforms.
Discipline and commitment were finally built to the point where I made a definitive decision to focus on one thing.
(The multi-faceted creator at the top of this page is still valid though. The rest are allowed, but only after the daily writing is done.)

After a varied work career covering gardener, painter and decorator’s assistant, bass player, mobile phone salesman, and then office odd-job person/IT manager (zoiks), I was struck by a mystery illness.
That was almost a decade ago now, and after losing far too much weight, being constantly tired and sick, including a couple of months pretty much bed-bound, a slow steady improvement in my health has been happening.

Wood carving helped improve my strength and stamina. Painting, writing, playing guitar, songwriting and other artistic pursuits kept my creative juices flowing. And streaming games live on the web helped to build some level of daily routine and consistency (At least one hour a day for a streak of 600+ now).

Now?
I intend to write and add a blog post here every day.
Some might even be about writing itself, as I find my feet.
And some may be about the other artistic interests I have.
Mostly, I’ll try and write things about anything and everything, and hopefully it will be at least enjoyable, and ideally useful for any reader that happens upon it.
