This is excellent. Depressing, but excellent. My response has been to give up, basically, and accept that writing is a thing I do on the side, while something else pays the bills. I also like that thing, so it's fine, but I get sad thinking what I could have achieved if writing was my full-time job.
“I didn’t have rich parents, a childhood bedroom to return to or an infatuated billionaire intent on marrying me. Either writing had to make me money or I couldn’t do it. “

I wrote about making a living from writing in the new economy.

#Breath is the least appreciated gift of the gods.
None sing hymns to it, praising the good #air, breathed by king and beggar, master and dog alike.
But, oh, to be without it!"

Round like a circle in a spiral, like a wheel within a wheel
Never ending or beginning on an ever-spinning reel
Like a @metwalkers.bsky.social wander round #CanaryWharf #WinterLights
Like a carousel that's turning, running rings around the moon
… like the circles that you find in #ICM #photography

Will loved spending his evenings down by the #docks with her, the views were lovely, watching planes land was cool, they could talk for hours about anything & nothing
So hard to find nowadays

She was a #ghost - died 20 years ago. But he didn't care.

I love the #Barbican because it's a psychogeographically distinct 'realm'.
The City has old, modern & semi-modern all nestled uneasily side by side, whereas the Barbican is a #brutalist nautilus which crawled into #London out of the murky Thames.

People speak of the 'dark heart of the city' as a metaphor for the rat race & concentration of power
But that's because they have not stood before it
Have not heard its piston thump, buildings shaking & taxis swerving in sync
Be glad you haven't seen it
It's better that way

Things I love about #London - walking home from the station after a Ramblers walk (along the Thames and through park and common) I first saw a #Marvel villains convention under #Waterloo
#StreetArt Art by #slaeone and others too in-progress for signatures

In a world devastated by climate change and social fragmentation, our only hope is to reach out to #ancient and #abandoned powers to save us, hope they can restore what was lost.

#WrongLondon entices you in with temptations of #mystery and #discovery. But all it delivers is #oblivion.

#WrongLondon doesn't do charming 'appearing and disappearing' #magicial shops. It does malingering #abandoned warehouses, which elbow their way in between other buildings.

Never knocked down, just… gone, before that happens.

If you ever catch a train from #Waterloo platform 1 & feel a bit of a chill, don't be surprised—the #London #Necropolis #Railway branch line heard about those trains without passengers, decided to run their own.
No, you won't see anything—they're #ghost trains after all.

Life is an #adventure —you never know what you'll see next!
The world *is* the largest dungeon—no one gets out alive, and have you seen how many different levels there are?
Therefore, if you go far enough & put some points in perception—you might just encounter a bit of #magic

When #Heathrow's 3rd runway construction began #spacetime got weird—concrete started to float!
Baffling—until they realised the river-warding on 3 sides had been breached! Worse than the last time too, which had resulted in having to lift the Picadilly line over the River Crane!

#GamesWorkshop's decision to announce the new #Ork heavy assault vehicle with a publicity stunt at Heathrow Airport surprised everyone.

Took weeks to get the bloodstains out of that skip…
