Welcome to the quirky dimension that is my journey as a Christian and fully devoted (just not perfect!) follower of Christ. Here you'll find out that, as a writer, there's next to nothing I'm not prepared to write about, including my faith. Prepare for a smash-mouth style to collide with colourful topics as I continue to blog into everything that God has called me to be. Do not adjust your monitors, there is nothing wrong with them, you have simply entered... The WRITE Dimension!
And just like that, it's October!
What a year this has been for me... easily the most challening one on record, but not without its rewards.
I have been giving a lot of thought to the future of this blog and all the more so since the updates became even more sporadic. I went through a period of considering shutting this blog down, but it would be a shame to discard all of the quality content I've constructed over the years. So, for now, it's going nowhere.

Hello everyone!
The process of finding momentum does not always come easy, but it should be sought out nonetheless for otherwise if you are prone to depression and/or anxiety, you end up losing sight of the bigger picture. I have had to adjust to life without my dad now for the last couple of months and it's not been easy at all. But I know I have to keep moving forward. It's what he would want for me...
Hello everyone!
Well, it's been just over a month since my last update and, whilst I haven't been able to do a fraction of what I would have liked to have done by this time of the year. I have had to adjust and adapt to differing expectations now that daddy is, sadly, no longer with me.
I miss him like crazy every day. Some days are easier than others, but what I'm finding the hardest is coping with the triggers that remind me of him...
Ha!
What a way to start this quick post!
For the past 20 weeks, I've been trying to watch Naruto from the very beginning and I just... can't... get... into it!
It's just too cheesy, and that awful theme tune? The epitome of cheese!
A show is often defined by its theme, some of which just do not age well. This doesn't.
This is an opinion I can be satisfied with given that I have stuck with it for 20 episodes rather than giving up after one or two.
I tried to like it, I really did, but I don't.
Peace!

Hello everyone!
This is a sad one for me to have to write this... in the middle of last month, my father went to be with the Lord.
It has hit me really hard and, admittedly, left me all at a loss what to do with myself. I don't know what mornings are like, especially as I find I'm sleeping in until early afternoons at the moment. But I'm trying to give myself the grace to cope with my grief the best way I can.
In the grand scheme of things, at least daddy is out of the way of the harm that this world causes people, that's a big plus, especially when I consider what the world has done to lesser men than my dad.
I still want to blog so I'll see you soon.

To all the gamers out there...
Epic Games is doing their fifteen days of free games again!
Yesterday it was Shenmue 3. Today it's Neon Abyss.
Get on over there and secure yours today!
Don't thank me, you've earned it, especially after the crazy year we've all had!
Peace!

Hello everyone!
I've just finished watching the pilot of Star Trek: Discovery and boy do I like what I've just seen!
This is not a review, as such, I just wanted to throw out there that I think this show (in my view!), has potential for me to invest my time into. I'm wary if I get into a show after production shuts down in case it turns out to be a gem that got culled in its prime (Defiance and Colony are just two examples).
This show is everything the J.J. Abrams films has in terms of production style so if you don't like those and you haven't seen the show, that's food for you to consume before you decide whether to invest.
I'm going to be watching this throughout the festive season now that my summer programmes have gradually come to an end so that'll go some way to filling in the void left.
That's all.

Hello everyone,
As you can see, I am significantly out of practice with blogging, with the last entry coming in July of this year and here we are, nearly at Christmas. It happens as seasons come and seasons go in a person's life and I would rather be candid with you so I don't end up making and breaking promises like I have done in the past.
Last time I said that things had changed permanently so would not be able to commit to any kind of significant return to blogging action.
That still remains true today.
It doesn't mean that I won't be blogging, just that I will be focusing more on quality than on quantity.
It's a shame as it did add significant value during the time I was able to commit. I don't see those days returning any time soon. I just don't.
But such is life.

Hi,
It has been quite some time since I last updated this blog, almost a year, I believe, but that is because as I am sure I have said before, my priorities have been changing so very much. The pandemic has forced me to reassess my priorities and act accordingly to ensure I'm giving the appropriate time and attention to what matters most to me.
In the days ahead, I hope to rectify this in my return to blogging, but it's going to take time for me to resurrect desire to regularly post.
My priorities have changed. Permanently.
Keep the faith!

Hello everyone!
I wanted to take some time to pass on some really useful podcasts that I have been finding incredibly useful as I have sought to increase the depth with which I move into self-development. Some of this might not be super relevant to you and if it's not you don't have to read any further. If this is something that you are interested in then, after the jump, you can see a list of some podcasts that I have been feeding upon.
This post is a strictly non-religious posts so it will not feature any church podcasts, though I could flip that around at a later date and let you know some of the ministry that I have been feeding upon.
Stay tuned...
