A Lame Attempt to Understand the Superbowl
Let me start out by saying my knowledge of American Football is pretty minimal. That said, I used to have one of these... ... but I loaned it to a girl until she dumped me and kept the hat (which, incidentally, I still want back, if you're reading this!!!) . There was a time in … Continue reading A Lame Attempt to Understand the Superbowl
January Sucks
It’s official (because I have that authority) - January is the most depressing month of the year. Christmas is disappearing fast in the rear view mirror and most people are too skint to take advantage of the sales. Summer is ages away - and we’re lucky if any of those resolutions that began with such … Continue reading January Sucks
“Wait, I forgot to put the crystals in…”
I think I need a time machine... Not for evil. And not because I'm a cyborg tasked with assassinating the future leader of the human resistance. I don't even plan on going far (I couldn't live with myself if I caused one of those time paradoxes Doc Brown was forever warning Marty McFly about). And … Continue reading “Wait, I forgot to put the crystals in…”
New Year Rebootenanny
Apparently it's a new year, but having succumbed to a seasonal bout of man-flu it kind of passed me by.

The superb artwork is by Peter Campofiori who has a great portfolio here on Word Press. And I must also give great thanks for Kate Johnston at … Continue reading The Great Illusory
Cover Reveal
It's been a really busy time of late - what with a new job and a hectic schedule of gigs with The 4 Tarantinos. Any spare time I've had has been spent on the realisation of a project that has been lurking in the back of my mind for a number of years, and one … Continue reading Cover Reveal
What if …
Read this and change the way you think about waste and the throw-away society.
Music of the Spheres
The lights first appeared on the summer solstice, hovering above the quiet moor. People clamoured to explain their existence: Scientists; witches; religious fanatics; others spoke of visitors from beyond the stars. Some issued them names, occultist monikers born in other tongues and dimensions. They shed their clothes and danced to hail the return of their … Continue reading Music of the Spheres
The Lie-in, the Witch, and the Wardrobe
A random piece inspired by a generally messed up weather situation. I shivered beneath the covers, aware of the horned fellow with cloven hooves beside my bed. "Make it quick, foul demon..." I said, defiantly. "If it is to hell you wish to take me." The strange, little creature laughed. "I'm not the devil." … Continue reading The Lie-in, the Witch, and the Wardrobe
