About Me

I'm an author and freelance journalist, venturing into the world of 'blogs' for the first time. Although I usually write from dreams, these are purely formed from my own opinions, observations and general silliness. If you're feeling brave, why not read a couple? Or if you want to go back to the safety of nice, familiar books, venture back to the main site.


T is for Typhoid - Posted on 11/24/2009


I've been saying for a while that T Mobile is evil. I should know, I've crossed over from that dark side; I've had that experience. Trust me. To be honest, I've had my suspicions ever since that mythical court case years ago, when they were still One2One. You know, the brain tumour thing? Yeah, you've all heard of that. But I bet none of you even know what the 'T' stands for, do ya? Well, you do now, because I've just told you! Hah. My friend has a cold? My aunt's guinea pig died? Your dad lost his job? Wait - they're on T Mobile? Well, I try to them these things!

But this blog isn't about blaming T Mobile for things. This blog is *gasp* big surprise, about me. Because I spend a lot of time thinking about these things, and not a lot of time doing things I should actually be doing. Like curing cancer, bettering myself, exercising and generally being an altogether happier, healthier and more productive person. Well, no more.

No more, I say. I've decided I need to do more. And I know it's all very well blogging the fact that I need to do more, but I need to recognise it on some level to actually carry the task out - she says to herself.

Feels like I've been sitting in the shallows too long. Need to raise it up a gear. Ya know? I'm always surprised by these people who are just happy with things the way they are, never to grow, to stretch, to challenge... I realise I might have a bit of a tough time ahead of me, but I'm confident enough in my work to take that gamble - and it is a gamble - and to really go for it this time. I have my third novel and I need to find the support I need as an author to help get it out there. I have my fourth on the way, too. I sound like I'm pregnant, do I not?

In many ways, I'm very happy with 'Meredith' (number 4) so far. In fact, I think I'm happier with 'Meredith's Obscure Adventure' (working title) than I've ever been with anything. Even though I'm not very comfortable with the sci fi genre in general - I don't read that stuff! But I'm writing this tale and it's coming together great. I have so many ideas and things I want to do in the future, too. So, as a writer, although I've been doing a lot of procrastinating of late, I think it's actually having an overall good effect on my brain.

But now I need to be more active. After all, there's more to life than masturbation and procrastination. I need to really push myself now. Hopefully the more I do that, the more strength I'll have, to do what I need to do. Writing this with good faith. Over and out.

I have those moments sometimes. When you think you really should do more, but I'm just too damn lazy to get off my arse and do it. Hope you get there x

What, is that really what the T stands for? I assumed it was 'talk'... how wrong was I?
