I’m currently so enamoured of writing I’ve been sitting here for 15 minutes trying to decide whether this post should be titled ‘Hump’ or ‘Slump’. I’m sure you get the gist. I’ve rather fallen out of love with my own writing at the moment. All …
Read MoreLack of Updates
I know, it’s been an age since I posted, hasn’t it? Sorry about that but unfortunately I had external forces (I’ve been off sick) meaning I wasn’t at my keyboard much. Never fear, I’m back. Having said that, I don’t have a great deal to …
