I have had the privilege of taking part in my first guest appearance with the lovely people from Lower Decks Radio! Thank you so much guys, I am honoured! This is about a recurring issue, regarding toxic fans and gatekeepers in fandom, both things I have a problem with. I hope you enjoy the podcast, […]
I have been trying all morning to find a way to easily create and upload podcasts – it seems this process is a lot more complicated than it looks – and than it should be! Still, in what is the first of a new series (a soft reboot as it were), I present a vaguely […]
So I decided to remove the Disqus platform from the site as it’s not had the desired effect. The Disqus site tells me comments made via Disqus will be migrated back to WordPress. It has not, as far as I can tell, migrated a single comment. Grrr!
I’m not really sure what I was trying to make here.
At the risk of coming under fire from anti-Star Trek Discovery fanatical zealots, this is the sort of attitude that I refer to when I talk about gatekeeping.

I am currently trying very hard to avoid brain rot. By that, I mean, I am trying to restart my creative juices and get back into the habit of both reading creative fiction and writing it. In particular, writing it. Why? Because between the daily grind of work (which can feel repetitive) and then coming […]
Working in a sales environment can be stressful. The exact nature of that stress can also vary from one workplace to the next. When I worked in bathrooms (not literally in bathrooms I hasten to add!), there wasn’t a sense of competition and there were only three of us. There was always a desire to […]
Breached the 70K mark on my wip! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
This is just sheer absolute, exquisite beauty.
I have eaten too much pizza.
I don't think it's up to you to decide what's best for women, nor whether or not men can find them attractive...
This meerkat gets nervous about a lot of things. In an upcoming Prompt, I’ll talk about tardiness, and that sort of overlaps with this. Picture the scene. It’s a busy London station, and you’ve just bundled off the Tube, and up to the main concourse. You vaguely know when your train is, but you’re in […]
