Welcome to my website, which is essentially my home on the internet, and is also, in essence, a portfolio/archive site of my writing.

This is also essentially about sharing my retirement activities as I continue living day-by-day.

I was born in 1958 on the west coast of Scotland, and I have lived in Bristol, UK since 1987. I live alone, and I spend much of my time reading, writing and learning.

I am currently engaged in studying for an MA in Creative Writing and Wellbeing which, all being well, should be completed by November 2025.

My writing can also currently be found on  Medium, and there is a link to that platform on this page. I continue to stand behind Medium because of their firm commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion, despite the current American administration’s abandonment of the same, which is mimicked by many businesses, including big tech platforms, originating in the USA.

Very short pieces of writing on a very informal basis on occasional days can be found under ‘Notes’.

I also spend time going to the cinema with a group of friends, spending time with my family and hanging-out with my neighbours.

I additionally take an interest in ongoing current affairs.

My cinema attendances and corresponding score (compared to IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes scores) can be found on this page, too, with my reading also recorded here, which is very slow going, as I spend so much time reading newspapers, journals, news reports and Medium articles, too.
