About

Actually my day job is artworks. Primarily pen and ink and watercolours.
I live in Norfolk with my dog "Rosie" after working for many years in the theatre and television transport industry.
I have over the years written a lot of plot ideas, but have not had the time to develop them However, I am nooow semi-retired andwant to get started on some of them.
I have notes written for a few short stories that I would call "A Sting in the Tail" as they do not end as one would expect. I have also written extensive notes for a novel, but that will have to stay on the back -burner at the moment.

    Your pithy response re Twitter drew me to take a look at your profile, HNibs and I'm not surprised to find that much of what I read of your life and interests reflect my own.

    I'm sorry you so recently lost a dear wife. My own soul-mate died thirty-two years ago but I remember well those dark days when grief is raw and life feels empty. I'm sure you will find the soul-mate you long for; you are an interesting character with much to offer and I wish you success for the future.

    Best wishes, Amarantha

    After losing a loved one your world is in turmoil, sometimes not knowing which way is up anymore. One thing you'll find from the Word Cloud is humour and kindness in equal amounts which hopefully will allow a little laughter in your day to day routine. Walking the dog is always a good antidote to grief, stress, depression!
