I am bloody well going to write this bloody novel if it bloody kills me.

I have a job interview on Thursday.

“How does it live, I hear you ask? How does the poor, pathetic specimen survive in today’s harsh and irrational world?

If a tree fell in my home town and it hit a tourist…
…how many other tourists would be able to take pictures before the ambulance arrived?
I live in what is cheerfully referred to as ye olde rural picturesque England. I tell folks where I live, and they tend to either express amazement (this must be [...]
