On the Road Again
The beginning of the Irish chronicle. Our epic journey started in Plymouth with an easy two hour drive to Bristol airport one sunny Saturday afternoon. An easy drive hasn’t been guaranteed the last couple of months due to the Curse of the Acoustic Foam! No, it’s not a campy B-movie, but instead an attempt by…

Gardening and a (It’ll be) Grand Tour

Hemingwrite and the Humble Mega Drive
The Hemingwrite is here! (almost) Damn! There are so many things that I want but could never justify, and one of those things is the Hemingwrite I mentioned about in an earlier blog post. It’s a high-tech typewriter, combining a mechanical keyboard with an e-ink screen and not much else. As far as distraction-free writing…

The Market Adventure!
Where is the time going?! I haven’t managed to get writing in a while, so here come the excuses… Business Stuff I have been ramping things up with Newforge Rings in the run up to Christmas, including my first market appearance at the Black Box on November 30th.
