A Bit About Me…

This is me.

You can’t always get what you want.  That’s what The Rolling Stones said.  And they were right.  So if you was looking for a regular coherent blog focusing on one miniscule aspect of this big and varied world, then it’s time to lament with Mr Jagger.

It’s with best intentions I try to be constructive here, however if I delve into angry diatribes, forgive me.  I’ve been good so far this year I think though.  It’s one of my two main outlets for thought on the internet.  I’ve done away with social networks many moons ago.  I need slightly more than 140 characters to convey my feelings – none of which consist of what I had for my breakfast (unless it was a particularly bad/good breakfast that warranted a thorough review).  Zuckerberg wants to keep the world dumb by making you ‘like’ everything and Twitter has angry mobs that just won’t let things rest.  I like resting.  Keyboard Heroes cannot be found amongst my associates.

I write as regularly as I can for various websites, aswell as doing what every thirty-something does and attempts a novel.  And short stories.  Not poetry though. I wrote one about a cat prowling round a rainy city at night once.  It was rubbish.

When I’m not on the internet I can mostly be found skulking around my adoptive home of Liverpool or heading off in some random direction on a train because I saw the name of a place and thought it sounded interesting. I blame Todmorden for this weird impulse.
