journeying: Courage to be creative
http://rhhblackthorn.blogspot.com/2015/08/courage-to-be-creative.html
Adventures in real Life. Saturday, August 01, 2015. Courage to be creative. This week, I've been doing an art course through Norfolk Adult Education, it's called Skills and Methods and was basically an opportunity to play with as wide a variety of arty media as possible to squeeze into a five-day course. But there really wasn't much else about. The next day, I spoke to the course tutor. She was appalled that I felt so ground down and was incredibly understanding and supportive. She said I was definit...

Indigo Roth: Thanking Clouds In Earnest
http://www.indigoroth.com/2015/07/thanking-clouds-in-earnest.html
Tuesday, July 07, 2015. Thanking Clouds In Earnest. I love the Summer, but I think we had ours last week. A frantic five days of insane temperatures and humidity (for the UK, that is), and now we're back to wind and rain. Tho obviously, as the season dictates, the rain is lovely and warm. Here's some pics. (Give 'em a click for a closer view, it's worth it.). And yes, new stories to follow soon, honest. Several months ago, I posted some nice shots of the red-leafed Virginia Creeper on Zoe's house. Be...

Sunday, 23 December 2012. Great - another evisceration of Apple, what could be better? There’s a USB microscope on the PC next door, I can write a blog on this and I’m going to be so witty, just like the last time, only my daughter spoils it all by walking into her room and asking for an explanation, upon which she picks up the iPod Touch unbidden, looks on the back and reads out:. Model number A1288. There. now can I have my laptop back? Monday, 10 December 2012. Santa Claus has come to town. Logic sugg...

Wednesday, 24 October 2012. I was on a roll; The Sense of An Ending. The Mayor of Casterbridge. And A Tale of Two Cities. To name a few. I’ve started the long run-on sentences of All The Pretty Horses. How did their first ever music festival make a £0.5 million profit on those crowds? Wednesday, 3 October 2012. Zombie apocalypse preparation update. 8220;The best place to hide” I mused some time ago whilst waiting by the fountain in The Mall at Cribbs Causeway. Where all the cool kids hang out - “th...

Monday, 6 May 2013. I’m not a hypocrite, but. There were some particularly nasty comments flowing in the vicinity of “English comedian, actor and presenter” Rufus Hound and former Conservative MP and “English author” Louise Mensch the other day; two people of whom I’d normally have little interest. I ought, I suppose, to be more upset at Hound’s description of his adversary as a “cocksucker” – should that be one word, or two? I’m not a hypocrite, but. Z likes it hot.

Indigo Roth: August 2014

Sunday, August 24, 2014. Resisting My Photographic Advances. One of the many delights of working at an animal sanctuary is the diversity of creatures to be found there. First, and closest to my heart, the dogs. This is Ozzie, a beagle cross who won the hearts of the locals when I took him offsite to meet them yesterday. Of course, once I told him I could do moody black-and-white, he was all smiles. I think he's channelling Christopher Walkern at this point. A final shot as I headed home; as the sun desce...

Sunday, November 17, 2013. This I Have Achieved. Well, all good things come to an end. Since late November last year, I've been a man of leisure. I was fortunate enough to have the resources at my disposal so that I did not need to work for a whole year. I elected to make the most of this, and set out to write my first book. This I have achieved. Soon after that, as an e-book on various platforms. Maybe even an audio book. Hey, I like audio books. Unabridged, natch. I'm rather excited by the prospect.

Indigo Roth: February 2014

Sunday, February 16, 2014. Crash Bang Wallop What A Pizza. Did I say pizza? I've been away, but I have a note from my mum. I took a few photos today on a drive round neighbouring Bedfordshire to cover my indolence. There's still a lot of standing water in the fields, tho Bedfordshire received hardly any compared to some of the western counties. So many are flooded, with no sign of it easing. It seems to be Spring, even tho my friends in the States are still up to their noses in snow. Links to this post.
