Trying to write, got an unpublished novel, The Errand Boy. Got some poetry under my belt, gone sober in Jan 2023. Ran a few marathons. Live in a lovely part of Yorkshire. No fascists, billionaires, s*x bots, A.I.s, DMs, politics or loonies, please.

From 20 Jan 2025 there will be no American politics on my timeline. I gave it 8 years, it gave me anxiety and disappointment. You let in the clown, he brought the circus.
Follow / unfollow, up to you.

Time for a coffee break. I'm still not feeling great but I've managed a flat walk around the perimeter.

Yes...it's been very difficult to write with...things and stuff but I actually did manage to write a couple of poems before Christmas and it felt like a mini victory.

Avengement ....this film is brutal, it's like the most violent version of EastEnders you could ever imagine. But it is damn good and worth watching if you are prepared for it. #Filmsky
