Today, I feel like making one of those reflective statuses, and with reflective statuses, it seems only right that you go back to the very beginning…. I started writing stories when I was around three years old (and reading too.) I’d write stories about lions, magic carpets, even frogs (I had a plastic frog in […]

I’m really pleased to say that despite all the struggles this year has brought, things are – fingers crossed – beginning to seem brighter. As I mentioned in the last entry, I have started to learn bass guitar. It’s going well! There are lots of skills that I need to hone in order to play […]

When my singing teacher joked, “You’ve played the keyboard in videos now, you should play the bass next time!” I allowed myself a giggle. Me? A bass player? The idea was ludicrous; a notion for a comedy show…. and yet…. The next evening, Dad suggested that I try his out. It took me five minutes […]

Personal Views I have wanted to write this essay for three nights, and finally, I am ready to get it all out. There are some TV series that have a lasting, profound effect on me. Life on Mars is just that. When it came onto our screens in 2006, it wasn’t only addictive because it […]

For all of us, it has been a tough start to the year. The Coronavirus has shaken the world, and sometimes we all don’t know what’s coming and going. 2020 was meant to be so good, better than last year, and already, we all want to see the back of it. The loss of my […]

It was a really good idea, especially as I’ve always been so against myself, so I’m putting together a list of all my accomplishments, and […]

A rip-roaring, action-fueled thirteenth installment of the ever-popular Alex Rider series. Filled with pages and pages of heart-stopping scenes that you can’t put down for a minute, (although, thankfully my heart didn’t stop, or I wouldn’t be able to write again :O NOOOOOooo….) Anyway, the story revolves around an undercover organisation who have been working […]

Morning, all 🙂 It has been a very weird, fuzzy existence for the past two months. In my last journal entry about inner thoughts, I mentioned ‘The Matrix’ as a movie that I could relate to…. Today, I remember another one. Anyone know the film ‘Sliding Doors?’ I really can’t help but think of it […]

Until yesterday afternoon, I hadn’t written my book for months. One reason was the job at the autistic school; a real irony, as I cared about the position so much that I wanted to excel there…. then they asked me not to return (Ugggg, why did I bother?) For more details of my severely-pummeled-confidence, full […]

I honestly can’t believe how much the world has changed since the discovery and warnings over Coronavirus. I am positive (because you have to remain so!) that it will be solved, we will discover a vaccine and all of these disasters will disappear. However, in the meantime, restaurants, bars, sporting halls, cinemas, theatres, events, concerts, […]
