What's it all about?

Hi - WELCOME!

If you've managed to arrive here I've maybe sent you a link or somehow you Googled something that landed you here either directly or indirectly. So as you've worked so hard to arrive - what's it all about?

I mean this blog... what's it all about?

Firstly some background...

I have run a blog before, I do have a website or three and I do have I.T. knowledge but I can't say that I find the whole 'cyberbabble' (or is it 'cyberbubble') easy or user-friendly so getting here, for me, wasn't a 'walk in the park' so if you too find some aspects of getting around computing, The Internet and well, blogging 'awkward', great - you're in good company!

If, however, you are some kind of expert and got here in a flash - good for you.

So, as threatened, here IS what's it all about?

Over the last few months in particular (that's 2017/18) and over an adult's lifetime more generally, I have found or rediscovered that I can write. That sounds pretty confident and yes I am, but that confidence has only just arrived. Why? Simple, I have written quite a few short stories and am part way through two novels (one at least of which will probably get finished, whether published or not) and that recent output is as a result of belonging to writing groups. My short stories get better all the time and one that I wrote a few days ago was I thought very good and a few friends agreed.

So, initially and primarily this blog is about my writing but, knowing me, no doubt I'll stray here and there as I am quite a thinker and sometimes quite outspoken and fairly politically-minded - so watch out!

As you'll see, this is my first blog, so be patient with me if things go wrong or seem wrong.

I welcome comments - goodness only knows if the way this is set-up will allow that (yet)! Oh, well done Tim - you checked - yes comments are enabled. I might try commenting myself just to check...
