This wasn’t what I planned on writing about today… But since I’ve updated my gaming machine the other day (Goodbye Vista! – yeah, I was surprised too, to see it was still running that…) I’ve been doing a little bit of clean up on it. The usual, tune

It’s that time of the year again. Beginning of November, the time when most writers, especially the aspiring kind, get excited and plunge deep into writing. It’s like the writer’s New Year. Time to wipe the slate clean, and make some “resolution”. I have to say that

Some people dread the big 30. Personally I had a few brief moments of doubt before my birthday over the last few months, but nothing too panicky. The day finally came, and strangely I still feel the same. No earth shattering drama here. I don’t really have any regrets

Finally, the last day of the month. Almost fitting that the last day will be number 31 for a 30 day blogging challenge… I must say I hoped I would enjoy the writing more. It made me realize that in fact I should be writing (almost) daily, but the content

Struggling to find a topic today. I have a few backups * Why I love my Win8 * What the heck is a phablet * What makes an engaging post (not really this one…) * Daily word counts However for most of these I have a specific idea about what I wanted to write

The moment I saw the trailer for Django, I knew I wanted to see this in the cinema. I love most of Quentin Tarantino’s movies and how outrageous, silly, and action packed they are. And the movie didn’t disappoint. I was actually surprised how many twists and plot

So I read this book today, I couldn’t put the thing down. The main character was annoying at points, there were things that should have been obvious to various characters, some of them behaved in stupid ways, some things about the world didn’t make sense, or weren’t

I must have caught something between a cold and a flu, as I’ve been feeling like a zombie hit by a bus for the last few days. It does not help meeting blogging deadlines… Usually when I feel off, on most days I’ll just try and work through

When it comes to writing pen names are often a hot topic. Some people see them as dishonest, others as a necessity. I did spend quite a bit of time thinking about the issue and whether to use a pen name myself or not. There are plenty of good arguments
