Life's unneeded possessions awaiting collection on the kerb during a recent council collection day.
Such a disposable life we lead these days.

Reuben and I worked on this idea of life being a journey with obstacles and a prize. Concentric circles came from a friend and the rest is Roo's. Please bear in mind he is only 9!
I can't not write, despite the chaotic connection and chance of failure. All my life has fed from this, so I'm not sure where I'd be without words. Jonathan Byrd, one of my favorite songwriters, said that he writes so much in the morning that he can't fit it all in the trash. Most of my writing is typing, but I love the image of that. A lot of my prose and poems are passing, shared once and never again. What's true to life will come to the surface, appearing again in my books, or read out loud in some setting. The important thing now is the absolute moment, that I don't forget I'm living in it. I don't believe in writer's block, none of that nonsense. You can always write something, even if it's worthless and uninspired. Sometimes, you need a full-speed crash into a brick wall before it all spills out.
