Hey everyone. I’m back from holiday and ready to get back into this. Full steam ahead with: Season 1 – Episode 10 – Breakdown We open with Gan having a slight episode and driving the Liberator into a meteor shower. Fortunately Jenna happens along and turns on the autopilot (one wonders why this wasn’t on […]
Read more "Rewatching Blake’s 7 – Part 4"Have you ever watched a film or read a book and wondered why they didn’t just turn around or go to the police or get on a plane? Have you ever wondered what happened to that character from Act 1 that seems to have disappeared? Plot holes seem to present themselves everywhere you go in […]
Read more "Filling holes"Hello, I realise that my post last night was pure vanity. It worked though, so thanks. I’m now over 1000 hits on the website, and past 50 likes on my Facebook page, which at least tells me someone is reading. In fact, it looks as though people from all over are reading which is nice […]
Read more "Update"Need one more hit to get to 1000 on my website. Who’s going to click and get me there?
Read more "Nearly there"Today I’m losing one of my most valued test audiences as they move on to secondary school. I just wanted to say that having you here to read what I’ve written has been incredibly valuable to me over the past year and a bit. I started reading you the story because I hoped it might […]
Read more "Farewell to Panthers"Season 1 – Episode 9 Thanks everyone for reading the last two of these. I know I usually do four episodes at a time, but have only got time for one tonight. This one I’m writing as I watch so it might be a bit different. Episode 9 – Project Avalon We start off with […]
Read more "Rewatching Blake’s 7 – Part 3"Season 1: Episodes 5-8 I must admit I watched episode 5, “The Web”, at the same time that I was writing my article about the previous four episodes. As such, I didn’t pay much attention, except to the flaky Ewoks that were dancing around the screen. My view as I was half watching was that […]
Read more "Rewatching Blake’s 7 – Part 2"I realised the great power of fiction today in the library. I’ve invented characters and situations and interactions before, but I must say that I’ve never brought something like this into being. It’s an odd feeling, pride mixed with mischief, like I’ve done something outrageous. There are five exoplanets orbiting Tau Ceti in the constellation […]
Read more "Today I invented a planet. I’m celebrating."Season 1 – Episodes 1-4 Blake’s 7 is a British Science Fiction show originally broadcast between 1978 and 1981. I’m too young to remember it the first time around and although I know I saw some episodes, I wasn’t old enough to know what was going on. I watched the whole series a few years […]
Read more "Rewatching Blake’s 7"Saturday morning is here again. Target: 2000 words. This may be a bit more tricky than usual as we’re about to leave the Earth’s atmosphere and I’m going to have to read up a bit about what that’s like (as unfortunately I’ve not experienced it).
Read more "Saturday target"Books, games, music, and life — filtered through the mind of a writer, drummer, and philosopher who thinks too deeply about all of it. If it moves something in your chest, I'm interested.
