Cover Art Competition – The Entries

You can now see the winners here Before Christmas, I visited one of the local secondary schools and spoke to some A Level Art students about doing some artwork for The Ardenna Crossing as part of a competition. When I publish the book this year, I’d love to be able to include some artwork from […]

What the Haiku! A Twin Peaks poetry experiment

Hi everyone, I had this idea while I was riding home from work today. I’ve decided to challenge myself to write a Twin Peaks inspired haiku poem every day for the next month. Not only that, but I’m going to perform them all on YouTube in short, one-minute videos. Here’s the first one. Hope you enjoyed […]

Monday Music 2 – 2018

On to another one of my favourite bands this week. From Idaho and Built to Spill, we travel to the other side of the United States to Charlottesville, Virginia; birthplace of… Dave Matthews Band In 1990, Dave Matthews was a bartender in Charlottesville when a friend of his convinced him to record some of the […]

The 30 tensest moments in cinema history

Here’s the link to my new Taste of Cinema article: http://www.tasteofcinema.com/2018/the-30-tensest-movie-scenes-of-all-time/ Don’t know where my editor found the images but they have little to do with the actual scenes mentioned in most cases. Before you go there, though, I’d like to take a second to acknowledge two scenes and three actors that I couldn’t mention in […]

#SAVEANNIE

Hello all, This is my first Monday Music of the new year and I’m carrying on with my plan to cover one of my favourite bands every week. I started with Canada’s Cowboy Junkies to close out last year. Now, I’ll make the not so distant journey to Idaho, USA, the birthplace of another of […]

The Andromeda Experience – 2

So, I’ve had the game a week now. I’ve dug around a bit and I’m really enjoying it so far. That’s not to say that I haven’t noticed a few things that are a little similar to old ground. On the whole, though, loading it up feels like putting on your favourite pair of comfortable […]

The Andromeda Experience – 1

Monday Music 31 – 2017

I’ve decided to go a different way with these posts for a few weeks. Instead of picking some music at random, I’m going to dedicate each week to one of my favourite bands or singers. I’ll post a couple of links to some of their songs, tell you a bit about where I first heard […]
