Learning to soar...

“When I write I can shake off all my cares. My sorrow disappears, my spirits are revived.” – Anne Frank

Welcome

Hello, and welcome to my writing home. 

It is presented simply as the writing I choose to share in my little corner of the internet, which is likely to grow as time goes on. 

Much, but not all, of the writing can be found on Medium, and that will likely grow, too.  A link is provided for anyone who is a Medium member.

This will be all me, living the rest of my life from one day to the next.

This is likely to be updated and changed as time goes on.

I added the reading and cinema viewing as I saw that as part of story-telling, and thus, very relevant.  I have chosen to give a score for both the books read (or listened-to) and the films viewed, adding the IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes scores for the films, and the Goodreads score for the books, to provide some contrast.  Previous years can be accessed by choosing ‘Archive’ on the menu at the top of the page.

As for the ‘Random Video’, it is literally what it says on the tin, so to speak, simply because I enjoy listening to music.

And as far as the header used on this website is concerned, my outlook in life is one of  ‘learning to soar’, and I feel that we should all support the UN Declaration of Human Rights, and the LGBTQIA+ communities throughout the world.
