Another Monday, another dollar. More news on the Al-Qaeda show, sponsored by the arms industry, the ridiculous theatre of world politics and plenty of fake news links to assist in the confusion that plagues modern consciousness.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: I’m not a punctual blogger. That’s because I still prefer to write fiction in the little time I have left and most of my life is nomadic in nature. Pretty much like a ronin, a sword for hire, so am in the middle of too many […]

Being rather bored with the cinema offerings at the moment, I’ve been reading more than watching films (unless I’m catching up on classics). Books: 1) Cormac McCarthy – Blood Meridian Incredibly apocalyptic biblical […]
