Bryn here; I just wanted to preface the very first guest blog post in the According to Bryn series. I want to begin by introducing one of my wonderful creative writing friends. Rebekah is from Wyoming in the United States and after meeting through social media, we have become the best of friends. So much […]

As with every one of my previous blogs, the views expressed are mine. It’s my opinion, not necessarily fact, although my opinions arise out of researched evidence and facts. You don’t have to take my word for it, and you don’t have to agree with me. The point of my blogs is to encourage discussion and

As with all my blogs, what follows is my meandering thoughts and commentary on the topics and trials of daily life as I see them, based on my life experiences, and my perspectives. I usually try to approach the issues I discuss with an open mind and heart, and I try to view them from

Becoming a creative writer was (for me anyway) a metamorphosis. I came to it by accident and circumstance, rather than a conscious choice. My fledgling attempts were consigned to the computer recycle bin and I would sit staring at the computer screen hoping inspiration would strike. In my favour, I was already a seasoned diarist

As with every blog I write, these are my thoughts, my ideas and my opinions. If you feel you want to comment, I would be most interested to read your views, but please remember to keep your comments relevant, respectful and clean.

What is the real cost of this ridiculousness? As I have said before, I don’t ever claim to be an expert on any subject. That doesn’t make me indifferent – I love the learning process. I’m interested in lots of things, and perhaps I know quite a lot about the things that really interest me, but

Over the last 18 months, I have tried my hand at writing poetry. Before I began my creative writing journey in 2019, I always assumed poetry was something other more intellectual, academic people did. I have always held poetry in great esteem and regarded it as the cream of all writing genres, so when the

I won’t apologise for this discursive blog. The subject is complex and convoluted; it needs to be carefully unpicked in order to understand the intricacies. The subject is, in fact, so large, I don’t hope or expect to touch on all of it, but if I may, I want to tease out the threads I

As readers of my blogs will by now have come to realise, the blogs are my way of venting my opinion. No person or place pays me to express my opinion. I don’t advertise anything and I’ll never encourage anyone to spend time, effort or money in anything, be it a leisure activity, any kind
