My latest "masterpiece" - needs a wash and an iron (not unlike myself).

"Executives shocked as cancelled show gets millions of views on different platform" - almost like people will give something a chance when they actually have access to it.

No! Just fuck off! Not everything needs to be an infinite run of diminishing returns. It will be a story told. A story with an ending. And that's infinitely better than it dwindling into obscurity. Good stories have to end.

Had one of those "it hurts when I look left" kind of sleeps, so of course all I want to do today is look left!

"I'm innocent, buy my new book!" is a choice.

Ugh, been awake from midnight to 6am...this sucks big time

Any advice or info from anyone (UK based) who went through the Right to Choose process for ADHD? OFC I'm struggling to get started...

I’ve only just heard the sad news that Jonathan Telfer, former editor of Writing Magazine, passed away in December. He was a genuinely lovely person. Such a joy to work with and to chat to. Absolutely gutted.

3/3 Happy New Year to everyone! I hope you achieve everything you want to in 2026! And if you don't? So fucking what?! You tried, and you're still amazing!

2/3 I only managed 1,578.87 km or 981.06 miles. I think in 2026 I'll set myself the slightly easier goal of ‘Land's End to John o' Groats’ (around 1,200 miles or 1,900km). Goals don't always work out as you expect them to! Limitations can be a good thing!

1/3 My 2025 walking challenge didn't go as expected...or it did if you're a pessimist! I wanted to walk the distance from ‘The Shire to Mount Doom’ (around 2,897 km or 1,800 mi) as EXTRA walking (no nipping to shops or school run), but after a year of INTERFERENCE and LIFE STUFF

Out on a lovely evening walk and got an inkling it's going to snow tomorrow. The inkling being a shotgun scatter of grit to the back of my legs from a passing gritting lorry...ouch!

Remember, if a present under the tree this year says it's from S.C, it's from me, not that other fat jolly man.

If I wasn't feeling self conscious before...

Oh thank god, the Easter chocs are here...thought I'd missed them!

I forgot how agonising waiting for submission news was...ugh.

Feeling energetic, might go caving this weekend.

Something broke in my brain and now I can only read "diced onions" as "dick 'ed onions"...

No time, no materials, no appropriate clothing bits...time to ADHD the shit out of this Halloween costume! And yes, I know it's been and gone :P
