Blog postSharp focus, can remain, for memorable events in younger life. Middle years, more a haze, where you can become a slogger, on a treadmill of repetitiveness. Memory, for these middle years, available, but not with such clarity, whilst caught in routine association, with work and home life. Satisfyingly comfortable, maybe, like that of clockwork predictability. Possibly, casualty, to a sameness, though.
Apparently, memory description, or how we retell an event, is newly formed each

across the tracts of time?
______________________________
The one believed to be

Blog postChapter 13 Alfredo brings forward a second visitor ‘Now,’ said Alfredo, his voice competed with whirring noise, made by walking, as he returned to the stage’s topmost step. Alfredo continued,
‘Now, we have a traveller from later in earth’s history,’ Not, you understand, as a role model, exactly. More, that of an adventurous character embodiment. For this person, -
Blog postBlank pages;
fresh diary.
Page white.
Cover bright.
To write day, week, year
anew.
Plan, plot, plough.
Sow in ideas, that
thread from mind;
oft in remind.
Lists on phone.

Blog postAchilles. Hero of Trojan War.

Disguised son, as girl;
hid on Skyros, so –
not to die, glorious warrior.
But this his fate! -

Blog postWriting a novel has been helpful. An escape from the media blast everywhere. That the novel is futuristic means that you as the writer decide the atmosphere and events totally. That is an imaginative challenge in itself. Where a novel is in a modern setting then the reader can relate instantly. That’s provided the writer provides necessary description and dialogue! With science fiction another world has to be placed into position and kept in synch throughout. Constant
