‘Finding the time?’ Part 1

It’s interesting that I chose to start writing this post at the start of a week that’s been really busy and I didn’t actually have the time to sit and post the article, but I did find the time to actually write it!

‘Inspiration, where do we get it from?’

How do we get ‘inspired’? Hang around any writer for any length of time and you’ll start hearing them talk of their ‘Muse’ and whether the ‘Muse’ is working or not, meaning whether they’re feeling inspired to write or not. It’s one thing that a lot of writers say they struggle with. Where to getContinue reading “‘Inspiration, where do we get it from?’”

‘Gravity’

My wife and daughter were having a debate the other day, they were debating the meaning of the word ‘Gravity’. One said “it’s the attractive force created when an object spins fast enough to pull things into itself” basically just like the earth does in spinning and keeping us ‘on Terra firma’ The other saidContinue reading “‘Gravity’”

Travails of a writer

Travails of a writer. That’s what I think I’ll call this post! Part of the ‘ups’ and ‘downs’ of breaking into the world of being a writer. Anyone who’s read my previous blogs here, know that at best, I’ve been sporadic in posting, and I wouldn’t blame you if you’re totally frustrated, but here weContinue reading “Travails of a writer”

A pencil in God’s Hand

“I’m just a pencil in the hands of God” This is a special week, a week when a life well lived was celebrated. Twenty years after the person departed this terrestrial ball, but a life that still impacts us today! This week the Catholic Church celebrated Mother Theresa by ‘canonizing’ her and making her intoContinue reading “A pencil in God’s Hand”

The Writer’s ‘Job’

“It took me a long time and most of the world to learn about love and fate, and the choices we make, but the heart of it came to me in an instant, while I was chained to a wall and being tortured!” I would so like to claim those few sentences as my own,Continue reading “The Writer’s ‘Job’”

An interesting perspective

“Writing is like breathing” I’ve been trying to come up with some ‘inspiring’ thought to share on my blog all weekend, and now, just as the weekend is coming to a close the ‘MUSE’ has finally shown up giving me an idea what to write! Actually it’s because I’ve just watched an interview by oneContinue reading “An interesting perspective”

Changes

They say there are only three constants in life. They are death, taxes and change! It’s the last one I want to think on at the moment as the first happens to us all eventually and I only know one man alive who hasn’t paid taxContinue reading “Changes”

‘One brick at a time’

Okay, so we’ve got a dream, and we’ve decided we’re going to actually “do something about it” but how? How do we take that idea and turn it into a reality? A couple of years ago I was working in a stores for a vehicle manufacturer, it was a job I hated, but hey itContinue reading “‘One brick at a time’”
