Another Brief Update

Hello everyone!

Thank you for your patience as I transition into 2019 properly.

I have gone through an awful lot of personal stuff that has taken my attention away from this blog more than I would have liked, but I must say that I have found great benefit scaling back my posts. In order to prepare new projects for launch this year, as well as a re-formatting of The Write Dimension, I will still be  aiming to post updates as and when I can.

What will be changing, over the coming months is the sort of issues that I will be tackling as I have come to realise that my mission statement at the top of the page is not quite being upheld at present as fully as it could be.

Keep checking on here for updates as I will be looking to gradually phase in my changes in a bid to keep my vision and my mission on track; to show people that there is another Way to follow than the one that mightn't have been working for them at present.

Peace!

Off the Scale #59 - Movie Celebration VIII: Tubular Bells by Mike Oldfield (from the film The Exorcist)

Hello everyone!

This week I'm going to be keeping it horror and featuring yet another seminal movie classic; The Exorcist.

A Brief Update

Hi everyone!

I hope you are all committing to your new year's resolutions and that they are proving fruitful.

The changes are coming, I will be converting them slowly but surely during the first quarter of this year. I cannot commit, at this stage, to regular updates like I used to because I need my resources to tackle my own personal issues, which are 100% a priority over this blog at the moment.

Don't worry, though, my "Off the Scale" series will continue as strong as ever so stay tuned for that every Monday.

Peace out!

Off the Scale #58 - Movie Celebration VII: Star Trek Theme by Jerry Goldsmith

Hello everyone!

Having already chosen Star Wars in a previous episode of Off the Scale, I had to include Star Trek as I continue to celebrate some of the most iconic movie themes of all time.

I am, of course, talking about Star Trek...

Off the Scale #57 - Movie Celebration VI: Psycho Theme by Bernard Hermann

Hello everyone!

This week, I have chosen a theme from a quintessential British horror movie as the movement throughout is everything that makes a good horror theme.

I am, of course, talking about the theme from Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho...

Off the Scale #56 - Auld Lang Syne by Robert Burns (Roud #6294)

Hello everyone!

Happy New Year, almost!

This week's piece is one that will be heard a lot around the globe as people tend traditionally to ring in the new year by linking crossed arms and singing along to this particular folk song.

From long, long ago until now, let's celebrate the beginning of a new year...

Festive Update No. III

Hi everyone!

Merry Christmas!

This is the penultimate post of the year so I just wanted to let you know that I am wishing you well this season as we pass through the end of one year and approach the beginning of the next.

My design ideas will be gradually implemented over the coming weeks so please be patient as I will be trying new things.

Peace out!

Off the Scale #55 - Somewhere in My Memory by John Williams

Hello everyone!

Well, Christmas time is here so, as I have done in the past, I'm going to take an episode of this series to bring to you a festive favourite of mine. Last year, I believe, it was Alexander Armstrong that I went for singing "In the Bleak Midwinter".

This time I've gone for the theme of a quintessential Christmas film and an unofficial continuation of my Movie Celebration themes. I am, of course, talking about Home Alone...

2018 Review - In Words & Pictures

Hello everyone!

Well, this is it, after a year away from reviewing my highlights be they in media or otherwise, I am pleased to confirm that today it's back!

As always, I will be looking at my favourite film of the year, videogame of the year, along with a random TV highlight and a significant highlight that I've been impacted by. They won't necessarily, in the case of films or games, have been made this year but I have to give them a shout out nevertheless because they've made an impact upon me.

Are you ready to get started? Then let's go...

Off the Scale #54 - Movie Celebration V: "He's a Pirate" from Pirates of the Caribbean by Hans Zimmer

Hello everyone!

Given that next week's episode will be celebrating Christmas, this will bring an end to my celebration of some of the world's finest movie themes. I may revisit this series in the new year, but for now I want you to get your eye patches out, get your peg legs on and dance with me...
