I'm a "proper" writer now, and everything
Posted Feb 12, 2004
Well, I'm headed in that direction. I've joined a "writers group" so people can praise/diss my handiwork and I can do likewise.
I now have two weeks to get my short story finished

Yet more excellent purchases...

I've decided to buy myself a digital camera.
Anyone got any "Which?" magazine-style advice?

Deserved Blues
Posted Jan 27, 2004
I'm feeling a little down. To be honest, it's all my fault. The fact is I spent much of 2002 and all of 2003 mentally juggling a whole host of problems and things-to-do that I'd kept at the back of my mind in recent years and didn't want to deal with. As a result I've become increasingly moody, aloof, angsty and generally unpleasant. This has manifested itself in quite a few ways and one of these was my increasing belief that I had been "wronged" by someone, despite the fact that the issues between me and this person stemmed from something I did, which itself was a result of my increasing attitude-problem.
Every bubble bursts and I've been nurturing this one a while. But a few days ago I was inexcusably rude to this person and managed to insult them and someone else who I had no issue with and thus no right to be rude to. As a result of this, my "bubble" burst and I got to thinking what a deluded arse I've been this last year and that I should take responsibilty for all the things I've done. My reason for feeling "wronged", incidentally, was that this person used to be a good friend and I thought I should have been treated better. It seems incredible that I should have to tell myself this, but that is something that went both ways and *I'm* the one who should have treated this person as someone who used to be a good friend, not as some sort of enemy to be suspicious of and someone whose feelings were something to take for granted.
So, yeah, I probably deserve to feel a little low. And maybe my resolution for 2004 should be "sort my life out".

Oscars all round?
Posted Jan 18, 2004
My mate Nizzy (of never posting to hootoo fame) announced today that he plans to make a short ten-minute film for very little monies as he want to "leave a mark on the world".
This is an excellent idea and he has my full support. This could be fun.

Is anyone else worried by this man's "resume", given that he's going to be directing the h2g2 movie?
